I wasn't even considering crankcase pressure, but it makes a lot of sense. The issues I had in mind were cooling of the turbos and preventing oil starvation to the center shaft of the turbocharged when the engine is turned off.

My design has a pump, oil tank and a cooler.
Interesting. This setup could be useful even if someone tries to turbocharge a 2-stroke engine. That would be quite tempting... On a sidenote, some Biagio turbochargers now feature their own oil sump, even though they don't have a separate oiling system at all.

It will also be vented.
Where will the vents be directed to? Intake just like a regular PCV or directly to the atmosphere?
