we have a customer with about 300 miles on his 15 boondocker kit, so far working very good.

400miles and flawless
is the oil return side of turbo blocked off? if so does the oil just blow thru the seals and into engine? if thats the case have any of you guys seen how much build up there is in the intercooler if you have one installed?

Yep. My oil delete kit was comprised of a new bracket to hold the turbo to the bulkhead, a fitting for the oil supply, a gasket , and block off for the oil return.
The bracket is identical to the brackets with the oil tank, minus the oil tank. You need to take your turbo apart to get it off of the bracket with the oil tank and then re-index your compressor/turbine after you put the new bracket on. I elected to just cut off the oil tank from the existing bracket rather than take my turbo assy apart. I would not have done the delete, but my oil tank took a hit and the return line did't line up real good. It was $250 for a bracket i didn't use, 36" of oil line, one block off plate, one gasket, and one fitting.
Seems to work so far. BTW this sled has ripped for 1500 miles with no tinkering until I bent the oil tank...
Ok. Maybe i just stick with the oiltank then. The fitting and all is not a problem, but it is not that cheap. I mean, if you can use the old stuff like brackets etc.

Is there any restriction on the fittings? Seems like you could do this with any sled and turbo with just a plate and fittings.
