Oil pressure putting strain on turbo seals?
My friend had mentioned that when you crank the car and the oil pressure is at like 80 or 85 that there may be too much oil getting into the turbo and not allowing it to drain fast enough, therefore damaging the seals, and causing them to leak. Is this true? Is there restrictors or something?

Search. There was a buy for these, and in fact, I have one I cannot use. It won't fit with my setup.
It's just an aluminum fitting with a small hole that goes between the turbo and the oil line. Work great in theory, and I WILL have one on my car, jsut not THIS one because it won't fit.
