Turbo oil drain problems w/AAM kit

Honestly, the AAM kit feels like a version 0.9 kit or something. A bit like Stillens SC kit, it has the potential to be so much better. Some of the components are good: manifolds, borg warner EFR turbos, intercooler is efficient, etc. But the routing of the pipework and required "hack jobs" to make this kit work (dent your front chassis to clear the actuators, turbo return design causing need for scavenger pump, air filter placement is bad and needs 90 degree relocation) shouldn't be required for a 10.000 usd kit.

I have by now fixed all the issues and really enjoy the kit. Its reliable and performs well. If I were to go boosted again I would go FI as well though. Just because I dont like having to make so many adjustments to such an expensive kit.
