well i dont have mine drain in the same spot. I have mine on the passenger side of the oil pan...my turbo has a line coming directly down completely straight right down to the drain into the pan. Yours comes off the front, and it appears that you need to shorten the line or something since I think your line is sagging a little. the more downward it is the better.

This is how Inline pro requires the oil drain to be ran. The line itself may be slightly long causing it do "dip" before it gets to the fitting. The line may simply need to be shortened a little.

can you see this being the case here?
It's hard to see, I am simply referring to your statement "then straight then a slight up"

I know this from personal experience. Where you tapped the oil fine is fine. All you need to take care of is the line coming off the turbo. Make sure you clock the turbo and remove any angle off the drain.
