If the main bearings run low on oil pressure (cos it's going to the turbo) then it's bye bye motor. Likewise if the turbo starves for oil when it's spinning hard: I've seen what happens and it ain't pretty! ! -If you're unlucky it'll spit bits of the compressor wheel + blades into your motor too . . . messy. . Find out how factory 3sGTe's feed the turbo, and whether they run a different oil pump/pump internals etc. etc. -If it's different you may be able to get the factory setup from a wreck or Toyota spare parts - and know you're safe on the oil-front. I'm no 3sGTe expert, so I can't tell you any more than that sorry. Oh - you also need a good VOLUME of oil to the turbo - not just pressure. You also gotta have a big return pipe to allow for foaming. The return oil will be super-hot too, so you may wanna run it through a small oil radiator on it's return to the sump. Perhaps through the AutoTrans heat exchanger in your radiator tank if you've got one, and the return pressure isn't too high (Don't wanna blow the tank and force all your oil into the coolant!). Heat management is a big issue, so the engine itself may also be marginal for cooling capacity in summer, with the extra heat from bigger bangs in the cylinders. Not tryin to scare ya - Hey, you probably know most of this already! Just trying to give you something to think about over xmas, so you'll have a better idea of which questions to ask people in the know.
