greddy oil pan with GTM TT kit

The #1 reason the GTM kit uses the upper pan is for the proper drain back back from the turbo oil returns. Too low of a drain and the oil

The #1 reason the GTM kit uses the upper pan is for the proper drain back back from the turbo oil returns. Too low of a drain and the oil can back up and cause smoking issues.

If the return has a proper unrestricted path it's not an issue, this pan is used in greddys kit for the oil returns and people run the AAM spacer with the GTM kit without issue.
