    I am curious where the oil which goes to the turbo comes from on the USDM STi and WRXs. Does it come from that rear oil tap by the knock sensor? how does it connect there? banjo fitting? any help would be appreciated!

    It comes from a hole on the back side of the block under the turbo, I think. There is a banjo fitting there.

    I might have a pic of it. I'll look around. Otherwise, I think you can see where it is in my engine bay.

    It comes from the pass head. You can see the channel on hte head and there's a banjo bolt that holds the hardline onto it.
