Pulse pump question

I am making a rear mount turbo system and using a pulse pump to return the oil to the engine from the turbo. Where do I connect the vac line to and where do I return the oil to?
 
on a nytro or apex?

you need to mount the pump right near the turbo not near the engine. make the suction tube as short as possible. on the nytro you dump it back in on the right side of the engine on the mag cover inspection hole, I think the apex would be the same..
 
If you're talking about a pump that operates on vacuum/pressure pulses like a 2 stroke fuel pump, it won't work on a 4 stroke.
 
I am not using it for a fuel pump I am only using it to return the oil to the engine from the turbo. I thought some of the turbo companies used these pumps. I could be wrong though.

I realize what you are using it for. A 4 stroke engine crankcase does not generate the pulsing vacuum/pressure signal like a 2 stroke, which is what allows a stroke fuel pump to function. I think the pump you're looking for is an electric pulse pump like a Facet.

That is the best way for sure.
Tyler, you should also know that the Powderlites and MCX turbo's both have a sump on the bottom of the turbo, and the oil line threads in to the sump.
