You're excluding the flow of oil coming from the topside in your analysis. Your setup, while seemingly functional, is impeding the return of oil to the pan. Because your oil line is longer than most turbo guys, you're less likely to have an issue. What size restrictor does your S/C use (if any)?

The way I understood this thread (and as seen above) it was showing a functional way to route the oil return for a supercharged setup. Why are we even talking about how/why this wouldn't work on turbo setups? He never said you turbo guys should do it this way.

I get what you're saying yes oil in entering under pressure but its not leaving under pressure. I'm using everything out of the box vortech minus the return line

no issues at all with the setup, thanks for the bump up though.

no smoke, no oil leaks.

only real issue is oil changes take a little bit longer to drain out that's it lol. Compared to taking the pan off and around $100 in welding on the pan I can deal with it
