Default precision turbo smoke?

i have a precision sc60 turbo that im running on my ls integra. turbo came off an evo mr and was fine. put it on my car and it smokes and im getting oil in the vacuum line from the turbo to the wastegate. do i just need a restrictor? i was told most garret turbos and precisions needed them. spools and all that perfect

-3 AN feed line with a .065" restrictor, & you'll be fine. That's what I ran on my SC-6031.

I just bought a car with an SC61 and it had a -4an and smoked like ****. Threw on a -3an with a restrictor and not little puff.

My SC61 Smoked at Idle with a -3 with no restrictor. My buddy had same turbo and smoked at idle with a -4 and restrictor. go figure. lots of threads on here about precisions and smoking problems on dailys
