DO I have to weld in the oil pan for the turbo drain line? Is there another way around that in a h22? And does anyone recomend a place I can get my ecu tuned at for the turbo?

 

Yes you must tap the oil pan for a drain . Be sure to do it in the correct location for your setup or have a professional do it ....

Tunning ?

MTBER is the man around here

 

Thank you for those kind comments sir

Concerning the oil return, make sure you have a fitting installed into the proper location. http://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=588934 gives you an example.

 

plus 1 on the tuning by MTBER seen his work on a couple cars...good stuff!!

 

Also make sure drain is right size!

 

there are weld-less plugs, but it's probably a good idea to get one that welds in. From what im aware you want the plug in the "deep" part of the pan at almost the highest point possible, and avoid hitting the downpipe with your oil line.

 

Thanks bud

 

you COULD get a weldless drain plug, and jbweld aroound the seems of it. im thinking about doing it, just to see if it'd work. maybe ill do a write up if it works.

 

i know a couple of people to just drill out a hole and tap it and thread a fitting into the pan with no leaks or problems....

 

yea, thats what i was gonna do, but put jbweld around the edges for security...
