Default needle or bypass valve? in order to drop oil pressure...

I wanna look into dropping the oil pressure on my turbo honda as it is mainly running at abotu 90-110 PSI, Ive seen an article that says i should insert a needle valve or bypass valve? could someone tell me what they are? whether they can be constructed at home or ripped off another model at the breakers yard? I am interested in doing this just need a bit more info to get me going...
thanks guys and gals.......

You are talking about an oil restrictor, which limits the amount of oil going to the turbo. This place has 2 versions - 1 for T turbos and another for GTs. Jegs and Summit also have similar devices, and there are even a few homeade ones running around.
