I am toying with the idea of installing a dry sump system on my turbo type-4 conversion in my 912. I have the room to mount a 911-style oil tank in the stock fender location and can run a fender mounted oil cooler up front. I also need a way to keep the turbo properly oiled. Does anyone have any experience with this? How might one plum this system up? Where can I get a dry sump pump for this purpose?

Using that system from CBperformance, how would the flow be set-up. I would use a 911 oil tank and front mount cooler, but were would the turbo oil line fit in?

just like it does in a 911 Turbo - you'd supply feed oil from the oil gallery, but you'd have to depend on a gravity drainback for the post-turbo oil.

turbo bearings don't need huge pressure or volume, unless you're using some kind of liquid-cooled center section turbo. an AN-4 is probably more than adequate.
