I just got around to install KPro. If this sensor is disabled is it ok to remove it and use the location as an oil feed line? I like working with this location rather than the traditional oil pressure sensor. Ease of access.

While there is always oil pressure at that location, it's actually variable. I believe Carey (Bales) measured the exact pressure at idle, but I don't recall the number, specifically.

What kind of headaches?? I have been using that port as the turbo oil feed now for about 50k miles and really havn't had any serious headache. Where do you recommend I go to get oil for the turbo?
I have put this on the "to do" list though. That sensor looks nasty.

Is your turbo still in one piece?

That's what has me curious. Idk what options my manifold will give me. It's a similar mani to the afi and full race. If its available and my feed line will reach it then it willbe a no brainer.
