After multiple test runs with various fixes, it became obvious that the a gravity drain was just not going to work. I already had a 4 gear CB Performance dry sump oil pump but was not ready to invest the time to dry sump the entire oil system. What I did was convert the pump to use the larger set of gears to feed oil to the engine and the smaller set to pull oil from the turbo. This video gives an overview of the pump and covers what is required to convert the pump.
This conversion solved my oil drain issues, but I could also be used to pull excess oil from the valve covers and possibly pull a partial vacuum on the case.
