first off i am a newbie to 240's and turboing, i have a 89 s13 with the kae motor and i am going to turbo it, i have done a ton of research have my parts on their way and know just about everything i have to do but i can not find out how to run the oil lines for the turbo (oil inlet to the turbo), i know how the outlet is run in to the pan, is there a sandwich plate with a fitting that fits on the oil filter or i have seen people take out the oil pressure sending unit and make fitting for that but what is the best/right way to do this. i have looked everywhere and cant find a single picture or thread on this. if it matters i am running a t3 turbo with a jgs log style mani. thanks guys

everything you need you can get it from jgs and or
cx racing (etdmotors)
2 ways get get oil feed line.
one is get a sandwich for your oil filter, and or put a T on your oil pressure sensor.

I used this. From what I read it's better than T-ing off the oil pressure sensor since it reduces the stress at the T junction. Also it provides outlets for you to run the stock oil pressure sensor, an aftermarket oil gauge and oil feed line. You can't beat it for $20.
