thoughts on oil return... dipstick T?

[Loochy88]

what would be wrong with t'ing into the dipstick tube well above oil level, but well below the level on the turbo so that you could keep the downward slope of the return line, would this work? this way you could avoid dropping the oil pan, and not have to worry about the shavings.

You can use the oil filler neck too.
I don't like it because without a filter, if your turbo goes, it dumps metal into your topend. The dipstick would at least put it in the pan.
