Default what size oil feed line for a gt30r

Just got the turbo and I want to make sure im suppling enough oil to it. It's like 3 16th line coming from the back or the block going to the gauge and the turbo. I have 80psi in full boost and 30 at idel. So I just want to make sure im feeding it the right amount

No.. I'm referring to the feed fitting that goes into the turbocharger itself. I'm not talking about the line.

What he's asking is are you running the restrictor at the oil feed. I'm personally running a -3an line with the .0035 restrictor because BB turbos like the 30R only need about 20psi(don't quote me on this, but it's around there) of oil pressure. More than that and oil begins to leak out of the seals and there goes your turbo.

The feed fitting should be the restrictor. You can get them at www.atpturbo.com, it's where I purchased mine.

That's the one I'm using.
