Pic shows the same Exa pump Sasha uses in the same location. I assume routes it to the pump and then back to a port on the Greddy pan.

I meant for the fitting under the turbo sorry, sometimes the 90's sit too low

Be prepared to do a ton of zip tying as you put miles on it. I'm still noticing where things are clearancing themselves almost four months later. A lot of old radiator hose and zip ties on my car now.

If u can find it just get a coupler and slip it to that spot and zip tie it. All my oil lines well be zip tied so they won't go any where.....

I have the same savage pump that comes with the BP kit. From the turbo to the pump to the oil pan...I was thing about running another 30 row oil cooler but not sure yet

Also if it is a bb turbo dont forget the supply line restrictor, the z has stupid oil pressure.

I'll run a resoiver to the 90 my turbo has almost a 1/2 above the subframe...I mite have to work some things but I can deal with small bugs when I get back from my training event. I also need a base tune so I can get it to z1 that's my biggest problem right now

BBRSpeedWorks · 07-29-2014, 02:58 PM

Ya I have the oil restricted already.

That all depends on if you have a reservoir for the turbo return. My 90 starts horizontal and turns up so it's no lower than the reservoir. But still a very valid point.

BBRSpeedWorks · 07-29-2014, 06:08 PM

it's not a great pic to show the clearance of the tbolt but i think u can see y im not to worried about it

Big thanks to CJ Motorsports for hooking me up with the pieces I needed to complete my stage one fuel retuen.

BBRSpeedWorks · 08-11-2014, 05:35 PM

BBRSpeedWorks · 08-19-2014, 12:23 AM

ok so here is an update. even tho i'm in cali for training till next week i've been making some moves so here it is.

brand new stock 2013 rays with 800 miles on them from a form member and good friend iron hide. "i was dumb and sold mine" but it gives me some ok tires for now.

working on a base map as i type this. as long as i get this i well be able to start the car aournd the first which would be great so can get it to z1 and she if can hit 600whp..also i have order all the pipe for the intakes from the turbo to behind the bumper and my oil line to the turbo. this is waiting for me at the house.

trying to pick out coilovers and if i want to run 3in intake tubes or stay with my 2.75...not sure..

BBRSpeedWorks · 08-19-2014, 10:37 PM

base map just came in so thats another thing i can check off and that much closer to start up... i feel like a kid on X-mas eve

BBRSpeedWorks · 08-20-2014, 02:04 AM
