At Corey Henderson's suggestion the twin turbo system has been removed from myb90 ZR-1. Oil was getting past the turbos and up to the engine. Could have maybe found a solution, but Corey felt that the system was "an accident waiting to happen". He is not a fan of rear mounted turbos, and especially with with turbos being so low on the car making it difficult to scavenge the oil.

Sorry to hear this, Ron. I know you were patient
for a LONG time. Plans?

Getting back to engine suggests oil getting into compressor hsg. I have never looked at the rear mount installs, but what is the angle that they are mounted at wrt horizontal and what does the compressor inlet look like.

This is the best picture I have when the turbos were installed. A couple of pictures of the system after being removed. The system that Ron Hanselman had on his car did not have
a problem with the oil getting to the engine. I don't know how or where his turbos were installed. My turbos were upgraded to bigger and ball bearings.
