Default Am I need oil restrictor for a GT3071R ???

i am asking that now because my car have 200kh only with maximum 3000 rpm.

am i need a oil restrictor with my GT3071R??
I have conented and the water lines too.

the oil line i used is custom...about 3mm internal hole.

Yes, but not for the oil pressure levels a honda uses. You will be REQUIRED to use a .035" restrictor to use for any GT-R series turbo from GT25XX to GT3582R

Ok so I finally need a 0.35" oil restrictor!
I saw the oil inlet before I install it to my car and
It had something like oil restrictor inside the hole.
For this reason the guy (stupid) told me to didn't use oil restrictor.

TheShodan this inside the turbo seems like oil restrictor... For what reason is there??


this is ok for me??

Yes, you need the oil restrictor, and your turbo seller is NOT thinking of the particular oil pressure of a Honda turbocharged engine. In addition, the one that you've chosen is an aluminum fitting, which has been severely known to cross-thread on installation. Please avoid this one.

The one you want to use is here.

It is for a -3AN line, but uses a -4AN flare.

I'm not going to go through a debate between yourself and your turbo seller. You want to do it, great, if not, that's a helluva gamble with a $1300 piece of equipment. This is how its done properly for longevity of the turbocharger. GL.

i will hear you my friend because the turbo seller wants to sell..

can i install it at 1000 km??? now i have 250 km.
i said that because everything is new and i drive with very low rpm (the gauge oil press says max 70 psi)

i search for a male/female restrictor....but nothing..

I sent you a link there in my last post. This needs to be installed NOW. 70psi is too much pressure for that turbo.
