2G 16g oil return line possibility!

[FIBA M - EC17PSE]

So I bought Paul Volks old compound turbo oil pan off him a while ago, (it has 2 10AN returns welded into the pan)

my thought originally was to block one with a special AN cap and use 1 HOWEVER!!!!! recently I saw a thread stated that the 10AN is actually smaller then the stock t25 or 2g drain http://www.dsmtuners.com/threads/garrett-holset-turbo-users-your-oil-drain-may-be-too-small.331710/ ! so it got me thinking a bit and thought my idea might be ok but now im worried it might drain too fast! if there is such a thing!

the IDEA I had was to have 1 from the 16g and then use a Y split to then go to the 2 fittings welded to the oil pan! is this a good idea or will it drain the oil too fast from the turbo? I dont know if there is a certain rate it needs to flow from but i know there is a pressure limit going in so........ I am not sure on what is the best way to go.

any insight would be great especially from turbo gurus who do or works with this daily

You'll be fine with one drain. Why not just get a non modded pan and use a stock oil drain?

You can't drain it too fast

I have my oem pan and i could but why? It means i have to deal with gaskets which could leak, i have to modify the flange for the turbo side to fit the 16g and its just going to lead to more issues then anything else.

Ok, i was not sure if it had to hold a certain amount of oil in the housing at any specific time or to maintain a pressure inside.

The Y was an idea as i read it was smaller then the oem 2g ones so if its going to be fine then thats ok, shall just run 1 line and cap the other
