    how about oil feed and return? since im from the hondafield and turbo'd a few of tem i was thinking of getting the feed from the oil pressure sensor with a T fitting and put a fitting on the oil pan for the return above the oil level. any other way?

    Best way is an oil filter adapter. that way you can run oil temp, pressure, and the oil feed line. its a sandwich adapter that goes between the filter and the actualy filter housing it self

    try to use an Evo 8 oil filter because they are short and round instead of tall and skinny like our stock filter. that way it wont stick down past the oil pan and risk getting hit on something if your dropped real low. for example

    Question.. Is there a fitment issue with a Evo 8 Turbo on a 8g still being automatic? I was told that I might possibly need to get extended manifold studs and a spacer, someone else suggested I buy a evo starter.. Which is the solution?
    Evo 8 Head, BC 288/288 BC Springs & Retainers, Weisco Pistons and Eagle Rods 2.4 (Comperssion 9.5:1) ARP Headstuds and Mainstuds, Cosmetic Headgasket, New Clevite Bearings all around, Evo 8 Oil Pump, English Racing water pump, Gates Racing Timing belt, Findanza Adjustable cams, 2 255 walboro pumps, RC 1000s, AEM Rail, and 5 Speed swapped, powered by a 6262 T3 w/ .82 A/R.. WILL MY TRANNY HOLD THIS? Lets wait and see :)

    The problem is evo manifolds put the turbo where our starter is, so best solution is to modify an evo aftermarket manifold so the turbo sits higher, or use 1 or 2 half inch spacers.

    Did you read the post above? The answer is up there:
    This manifold and turbo selection will run into the starter so you must use at least one manifold spacer milled at a slant to position the turbo upward away from the starter. Some people have used two spacers and some have used one milled spacer. This requires replacing your studs with longer studs to be long enough to fit the spacers.
    Go to club3g.com theres more info there, this is from a post on C3G
    Using the Evo VIII Manifold, one will need a "shim" piece (basically an angle-shaved manifold spacer) between the block and the manifold, as to angle the manifold up a bit, to keep the stock fans as well as leave room for the AC lines.

    Im actually going to try this flange adapter that i just bought on ebay a few mins ago, it allows me to use a Dsm manifold and will allow me to bolt up a Evo turbo.. Im gonna try to use it and see..

    I would've gotten a evo manifold modified, with adapters or spacers its just more gaskets to buy, and more problems, less efficiency, Good luck

    there would be no benefits from using a evo turbo and dsm manifold. The reason why the stock evo turbo is good is because they are twin scroll. By using a dsm manifold, you wont get all the benefits from using that turbo

    No, you need to swap to evo 8/Manual 3g eclipse connectors or a conversion harness from Boomslang for around $350, I think ^^ underated was making some too

    I figured a jumper harness was needed. Was just curious.

    Oil filter adapters:

    http://www.glowshiftdirect.com/Oil-F...-Adapters.aspx

    Buy the mitsubishi specific or M20 x 1.5, and remember to change your oil filter for a evo 8/9 one since those are shorter and there's less risk of it getting hit or damaged from something on the road.

    A 1g oil filter is shorter or about the same length as a evo one but it's wider so you can hold a little more oil.

    I've been using the regular height k&n and Mobil1 filters with my sandwich plate. My car is pretty low for NYC and I've never had it hit the oil filter.

    Is that you Edgar?
