Default oil restrictor

I have a 2000 civic si running a ssautocrap kit... yeah i know. Since the turbo has been installed the car has been burning a decent amount of oil. I just did a compression test on it showed an even 200 on all 4. I am aware the problem could be within the head, but am thinking it might be the fact it is lacking an oil restricted and catch can. Any ideas or personal experiances would be helpful

What size oil feed line are you using for your turbo? Also, do you know what kind of pressure your turbo is seeing at WOT?

-4AN line - get a restrictor
-3AN line - you could get a restrictor here too if you're turbo seals are going out, or if it's the cause of burning the oil due to high pressures.

Inspect the charge pipes and turbo housings for oil, check the exhaust ports in the head to see if the valve seals are leaking.
