i have been at this for 3 months now on trying to get my s2k running and have hit a brick wall with my oil feedline to my turbo can anyone help me out? my turbo is not water cooled and i had to use a oil relocation kit because of my turbo manifold is in the way of my filter, so i was told to run my feedline to my oil pressure sensor but i dont think it is giving any if at all oil to my turbo because it made i loud screaching noise when i finally cranked her up...so do yall have any ideas on where the best place would be to run it to so i can get sufficient amount of oil to my turbo?

 

When having an oil relo kit almost every time I have seen and on my car that is where i have seen them. Of course my car isn't running yet so i would be interested too. This thread needs to be moved to forced induction for a better crowd to answer your question

 

most sandwich adapter plates (the portion that goes where the oil filter used to be) have a threaded bung that can be used for a supply line- if not buy another adapter that has one. but several people have ran it from the oil pressure sensor with success.
as far as the screech goes, did you prime the turbo with oil prior to start up or did you just crank it til it started (you have to prime turbos the first time they are ran or if they sit for a few weeks without being used)

 

okay thanks, yea i did prime it the first time i cranked it but the 2nd time i cranked it made that noise because i thought it was going to be getting oil through the sensor and it wasnt (i think it wasnt anyway) but yea i dont wanna spend anymore money on another kit but i guess ima have to, having that feedline off the sandwich plate makes total sense!

 

just t it off the pressure sensor

 

i did t it off the pressure sensor and none of my lines had any oil in them when i un did them after i heard that loud noise...is there a way u would know if it was pumping oil into the turbo without having to undo the lines?

 

Are you sure that you have any oil pressure at all?

 

I forgot to mention that you should really take a close look at how you ran the lines for the oil filter relocator- if the lines are ran incorrectly then it will not allow the oil to flow through the filter and cause no oil pressure.

 

Ive always t'd off the pressure sensor

 

okay i just cranked my car again after checking over everything....when i rev'd it up all i heard was all engine and no blow off valve noise is that normal? this time i had no smoke and it purred just right....and i dont know if i did the hoses right on that oil relocator kit, i think i put in to out and out to in, is that right?
