GT35R oil restrictor...

hey ya'll, do you think this would be a good oil restrictor for a HTA 3586r turbo running in the upwards of 40 psi?

or do you think this one would restrict oil too much???

I "think" this is the same kind that AMS includes in they're kits...

FP has a great restrictor and filter all in 1. If the turbo fails when using this they will replace the turbo.

^^^ cool, thanks for the info!! I don't see it on their website but I will call about it tomorrow.

do you know what size lines that it fits on? -3 or -4 an?

ball bearing turbos only require enough oil to lubricate the bearings. so it doesnt need a lot of oil pressure. it really only needs 10 psi or so. so to lower the PSI we run restrictors.
