I was talking to a friend today, and he was telling me how he was going to make a seperate oil pump for his turbo. He said he was going to get a 12 volt pump and get a resevoir and pump his oil for the turbo through that instead of running it off the engine oil. He said he was going to use very thin oil so the turbo would spool faster. Any thoughts on this, is this a good idea, or is it just better to use the engine oil to supply the turbo?
