Every time i let my car sit for a little while and the oil pressure gets high like when i first start it in the morning, i think myoil feed line is allowing too much pressure get ot the turbo and the selas are giving out. I mean its seeing like ubove 70 psi and blowing smoke everywere. Anyone know of a good sight for a DIY oil restrictor or somehting i can buy cause i need one badly. Plus i mught wanna try and change my oil drain too.

 

I bought an autometer 1/8npt to -4an fuel restrictor fitting (ATM-3277 summit part number), and had the hole drilled out to .060". I am going to use that as an oil restriction. I am going to have a pressure gauge after the restrictor so I will let you know how it works out. If it doesn't work I also bought a 5 dollar needle valve at a hardware store.

 

what size is ur feed line?

 

I know the oil pressure in my car usually goes pretty high when I first start it but once it warms up it goes down. Probably no help to you though.

 

yea it goes down after awhile but id like to get this thing so it wont see more than 30 PSI no matter what to see if its my turbo that making the smoke or somehting else. Either way i still need to restrict the amount of oil its seeing

 

I nwas told you can put a nitrous jet in the line to restrict it. You can even get any size to go up or down in pressure.

 

really, got any more info on this?

 

I'm using one of these and an oil pressure gauge to adjust pressure.

 

He just suggested pretty much the same thing I did above.

 

were can i get one at?

 

this is where I got mine
