Finally, it has to get past the oil filter before it can get into the working parts.
I guess my concern would be ,Id have thought alloy shavings could float on oil, then perhaps the big end/crank could dip the oil and pick this up, probly overthinking things, but ive always removed sumps on other turbo installs, to fit the oil return.
Anyway, John i don't wan't to start spamming up a exellent build thread, so if its still all working then sweet, lets leave it at that.

I don't see it as spamming at all. I appreciate your interest, even more so now that you've mentioned you've done turbo installs yourself.
I've never done this sort of thing before so I'm a complete novice. These threads are for sharing ideas and I welcome any and all comments especially if someone sees something that I've done blatantly wrong.

The -3 feed line was recommended to me by another workshop and also recommended by the local Garrett dealer aswell after i enquired about it while i was installing a TO4Z On my toy but saying that i didn't run an inline filter. Those fittings are readily available at speed shops like Rocket and VPW and even hose and fittings specialists like Enzed and Pirtex

Ive only done Turbos on old holden motors 186 and 202s, plus helped with my bro in laws Turbo VW drag car, the only Nissan stuff has been RB30s, had nothing to with Turbo TB45s (even tho i own a TB45) im afraid.
With the progression of pics etc, Im assuming you may have already finished this install ?, if so, this makes it even better for any readers, as you already "know it works".
Scoop looks mint !
FYI, I used the same cheapo intercooler you have, except mine was 150mm wider across the face (600), the engine made over 500hp (eng) so don't let anyone tell you it won't work.

Cheers, I've already bought all the fittings and braided teflon hose.
Using -4 for the oil, -6 for the water and -10 for the oil return.

No the install isn't finished yet. Everything is ready now for me to remove the extractors and bolt the turbo on then make the exhaust.
I've been caught up with home-owner chores and stuff and I want to do some N/A logs of timing with AFRs for comparisons.
Also want to log what the MAP sensor is reading up to 100 kpa.
I'm hoping turbo will be fitted in the next month but I wanted to get the thread underway before it became too daunting a task..

Sweet, look forward to the rest of your posts then
Test & Tune at Willowbank before and after, will give you a great idea on how much more "overtaking" speed you will develop.
