Turbos mounted higher than the oil pan return don't have this problem.

That's why Sasha did the Exa pump setup with the initial BP kits. All it takes to appreciate what that thing does is to run the car with the wiring from the Exapump jacked up. You have a whole new appreciation after flushing oil from your intercooler then having to drive around with a smoke stack till the oil burns out of your exhaust.
