having the drain above the oil level in the pan is ideal and makes for the path of least resistance for the oil to drain. that being said enough guys are doing the drain the other way if there was a problem we would heard about it by now.

as for me I'm going to tap my oil pan the ideal way just because it's not that hard and one less thing to worry about, I didn't get a huge tap and die set for nothing

 

Its alot easier to add this fitting then to completely remove your oil pan and tap it. Its not a big deal doing oil changes either.

As for oil getting backed up and entering the supercharger or turbo, I'm not sure on that. Although Comptech and Greddy use this system and I never heard of any problems, I could be wrong though.

They only way I could see that be coming a problem is if you had excessive crankcase pressure or blow by (bad piston rings), then I could see it forcing the oil back into the turbo or blower. Just my 2 cents.

 

 

Wow, now they are going back on their old marketing used against ATI by using an internal lubrication design. Next they will be offering an air to air intercoolers. They are finally getting out of diapers and entering the real world.

to add to comptech and greddy, SOS kit also uses the drain plug spot.

 

No, they offer them for the mustang and a small handfull of other cars.

You can buy one through aftermarket companies for the Honda but not Vortec. I have always thought they were stubborn for not doing it. ATI is a few miles down the road from me though so I am rooting for them anyway.

How can you adiquate air flow to the rear of the car for air to air exchanger?Obviously there is a place for air to water but if it is not necassary I would be interested why you would use it.

I brought a exchanger thread back to life so we can let this one be.

Of course it's possible... just look at the Porsche example again.

The early 90s 911 turbos were air cooled engines that put out around 400 hp and they did great.

I wish I had one... that would be great.
