random question
Can you run an oil feed line from the oil filter housing to the the turbo on an OEM 8 or 9 turbo? If not, what is the thread pitch on that housing so I can plug it if I go back to my OEM turbo?

I think you can but you need a proper restrictor pill otherwise you may damage the turbo.

On dsm's a lot of people run the feed from the OFH, so evos should be no different. I do believe the above is correct though. You'll need a restrictor.

And the fact that it sits lower than the turbo shouldn't matter as long as you have oil pressure. It's not gravity fed.
