Because if the oil doesn’t drain completely from the turbo, and the oil in the turbo drain can be foamy, then you can end up with oil leaking out of the turbo seals.

I'm curious why it would be bad, if it is.  I definitely don't know either way.

It just hit me that the oil return line on my new setup is under the oil level.  Is this bad ie do I need to redo it?
