Iv bought a oil scavenge pump for my low mounted turbo.
Other than the oil sump, where can I return the oil?
Long story why I'm not tapping sump yet, so I'm open to your suggestions for now, thought about dipstick hole, but that's not option either
Thanks.

breather hole isn't a good option either - you'll end up with a buttload of oil being carried into the intake, instead of draining.
Telling us the engine+car might help with other options?

Why not put a return into the sump ? After all that is by far the simplest option.

Remote oil filter and plumb the turbo line into the filter return line?

ahh, I remember yours now! Lol Add a bulkhead fitting to the middle of the rocker cover, and plumb it into there Don't forget, the scavenge pump still has to be below the turbo (in an ideal world)

sump or rocker/cam cover is the only place other than a breather maybe, but I don't know that engine.
you can't add it to a remote oil filter as that's pressurised, turbo returns aren't, also turbo's don't use a lot of oil at all.
