oiling for turbo when deleting omp n running premix

So I'm deleting my omp on the 13brew single turbo that's going into my 85 rx7 n I talk to people n they don't run any oil in the engine only premix i don't see how that can work due to oil needing to be there for the bearings in the turbo or is the premix enough

Seriously? WOW!

You do run oil in the engine or the engine seizes. It means there is no oil in the combustion chamber when you delete the OMP.

I think there was a slight misunderstanding in your interpretation.

The oil metering pump injects oil from the engine's primary reservoir (oil pan) into the combustion chamber to lubricant internals that can no be lubricated via a pressurized system.

Pre mixing means the oil for this purpose is injected along with fuel video the fur injectors.

The engine still has the oil pan and oil pump for pressurized oil being fed to the bearings and such.
