Hey, I know u guys know a lot and again I am installing my turbo myself I basically know where the oil lines are but it says u have to run the oil inlet to the engine and replace the stock plug with a duel outlet. I got that I just wanted to know where that oulet is on a 1997 honda civic dx. They also said the other line goes to the oil pan and I have to drill into it, thats easy enough I just needed to know about he oil inlet line. Thanx

for the oil feed line you need to attach a "T" fitting on the block where the stock oil pressure sensor was so you can keep the sensor and have the oil feed line. The stock sensor is on the back of the block right above the oil filter. When you do these make sure you use teflon tape so they seal properly or youll have a mess. For the oil drain the hookup is simple enough just make sure the line runs to the shallow side of the oil pan so it is above the oil level and make sure your line is as straight and free flowing to the oil pan as possible or your turbo might leak oil.
