theres two *basic* parts to turbo installation, i/c piping and oil feed and return. i'd consider getting half of that wrong as being completely wrong.

when you were in school there were only 3 letters in the alphabet, geez.



if theres 2 questions on a test and you get 1 wrong, you get a 50% which is an F :P

wow yea aurosting points out a VERY important fact here...



your turbo is installed completely wrong.



The oil feed line should be pointing straight up, oil return line should be straight down. The return is not pressurized so the way you have it setup is 90 degrees off, it will cause oil to pool and your car probably smokes like a mother.

Agree with the oil pooling you will back up the ret to the pan and blow out internal oil seals of turbo...have done that before when my ret line got kinked a little.
