Thumbs up Turbo install on 2.2

I was wondering if any one can help, I will be installing a Turbo LNF on my 2.2 2009, and was wondering where do you get the oil from to suply the Turbo, I don`t want to reinvent the wheel, it will also save time for the mecanic to install the Turbo system.

Thanks

usually its tapped from the oil pan. That involves dropping the pan, cutting a hole, and welding in a bung to which you can screw in a threaded line. that's your best option.

Would that be the return or the feed towards the turbo

Thanks for your help, the mecanic who will be doing the job has already done a few Honda's, but not sure if he's ever done a chevy

according to the garret kit, there is a galley plug on the block you take off for the oil feed. i went a different route and tapped mine from the head cause otherwise my line would be hittin exhaust. but the oil pan is for the oil drain

I didn't think LNF TURBO used water, I thaught it only used the oil lines to and from.

It's not yet installed, these are the parts I have for this project
- LNF Turbo assy
- HHR SS intercooler
- HHR SS all the pipes from and to Turbo
- cold plugs (gap .32)
- 3 '' DP no Cat ZZP
- GMPP Cat Back
- Tune (Trifecta)
- will be installed on a 2.2 2009, want to keep the boot at 8psi
- 42 injectors plus cable (not sure yet if the cable is compatible with my 2009)
If any one with experience think of something I maybe missing, please feel free to add to my list.

thanks
