The problem is when you have a 3/8 to1/4 line with 80 to 100 psi it doesn't have enough time to drain back into the pan .when that happens oil will find its way out somewhere and most the time it goes back through the inlet tubes witch will cause detonation. Also ball bearing turbos do not need alot of oil that's why we run a .040 jet
