    I wondered how effective that scavenge pump would be mounted above the turbo, I've never seen anyone do that. How hard would it be for you to find somewhere for it where the line does not have to run uphill before it reaches the pump for a test's sake? Usually low mount turbos have a sump of their own, and often it has its own breather.

      Turbowerks claim the pump can scavenge up to 3 feet above a fluid source. It works really well until crankcase pressure increases. While I wait for parts I removed the stock VC vent and shoved a rubber hose in there. That has seemed to help alot already.
