I'm curious too. My install will probably be next month and this is the part I'm most worried about. If you can't get it to work, maybe a different fitting would help. I'd hate to lose the Aeroquip but maybe it's too long.

What size is the drain line #10 ? what about using a 45 degree out of the bottom of the turbo to angle it more to top of the oil pan? I think it would be much better to use a angled fitting then to try to flex/bend and kink the line . Looking good BTW

A 45* fitting on the pan and the turbo drain will work well for that.

What size is that turbo?

How much does that setup cost? Manifold, Turbo, Downpipe, Electronic cutout.
