Default Cossie Experts??? Is this true?

I seem to remember from a while back reading an article in a magazine about rebuilding a YB cosworth engine.

It mentioned something about increasing the 'hole size' of something to the Turbo so as to increase oil flow.

Anyone know anything about this?

And is it a good idea?

Cheers

It can be doen and we do it dependant on turbocharger specification.


Be carefull as excess volume will just blow the turbo seals.... too little will destroy the core....
