  Unless you have a KKK turbo. They're dead end.  BTW, the restrictor
orifice in the return line from a Garrett is what regulates boost. :)  If
that
hole is smaller, you'd open the wastegate at a lower pressure.  If it's
larger then it'd open at a higher pressure.  :)

 There is no way for oil to exit the "spaceship?" If the "spaceship"

  Most likely it would only dampen the operation of it, making it a little
slow to add more fuel and slow to cut back as well.  Oil is a bit heavier
medium to move than air.  The biggest thing would really be oil in the
line itself.
