Anybody with twin turbos running and oil bypass? I pulled the trigger on an Amsoil kit but I'm running a twin setup so not sure where to get my oil feed. I've heard of people putting a t in the filter housing ports but im worried i will starve a turbo of the needed oil

  • There are 3 ports in the filter head, so I would just use one of those. The passage under the ports is quite large and taking oil there won't have any increased effect on flow over any other port.

There are a few oil plugs on the driver side of the engine. I think there is a few more drains back in the pan over there too. You'll see the raised casting where the oil pressure sensor is at there should be another oil port with a plug there.

I have a single but did put a T in where your smaller line is. One goes to bypass and the other used to be oil temp, now it's just a plug. But I want to agree with @AH64ID on not affecting psi to much as bmk kit has a tiny hole that controls the flow. Whatever you do, don't drill it out bigger. If anything I think it can be a tad smaller.

The 3rd one, on mine, is on the side and would be hidden in that photo.

Well no 3rd port for me. I will take the advice and see if I can find one on the driver side
