Im searching for pics. of the oil return hose routing on a Nytro with "front mounted" turbo (Ulmer, Alpine, Impulse).
Its kind of tight between the Engine and the cast sides.
On "mountaintech:s" build he grinded and drilled the casting but how is it done on the Commercial kits ? i want to use a fairly large hose.

I went through the CF casting because there was too little space IMO to route the line properly any other way, without compromising the line over the long term. If you try and route it between the CF casting and the engine it will rub at various places over time. I recommend using a -10 (5/8") hose.

I ended up going through the casting, did not feel ok with it rubbing and the sharp bend it would have the other way.
Used the same hose MCX uses for their Viper Kit, cant remember the size now.

Couple of pics. -10 hose to give some internal volume. Has worked flawlessly since install.
