1/4NPT Oil Restrictor Fittings
I went through the archives and all I can find is 1/8"NTP fittings for oil restrictors. The newer Garrett T3/T04 turbos now use 1/4"NPT fittings. Has anyone had any luck finding any restrictor fittings in this size. I'm sure I'm getting oil past my seals because when I come to a stop a puff of smoke follows me. Thanks

Re: 1/4NPT Oil Restrictor Fittings (beta13)
I used autometer ATM-3277....it is a -4an to 1/8npt nitrous/fuel restrictor. I had it drilled out to .060". I have a gauge mounted after the restrictor, and at cold starts the max pressure I get to the turbo is in the 45psi range.
I have yet to see what the turbo gets pressure wise with full throttle, but I will find out soon.
THe restrictor can be found on summitracing.com for $7.95.
Oh, the restrictor I am using is before the turbo, so I didn't have to worry about the 1/4" npt problem.
