Jornal bearing turbo's don't really need the resrtictors. They are meant more for BB turbo's where the bearings don't need to actually be soaking in oil but rather have a lite film spray on them. Its a little tougher on the seals not having one but on a Journal bearing turbo I wouldn't recomend one. I ran the same turbo your planning on for 2 years with no restrictor and had no problems. Good luck.
