i had -3 on my drag kit forever with no restrictor. no issues.
talked to f-r geoff and he assured me that -3 w/o a restrictor is fine for the t3t67ho i am running now.

Most people on here are going to tell you you dont need a restrictor with a -3an line.It all depends on what psi you are putting out at full throttle.

psi of boost or oil to the turbo?

if your talkin boost its a stock 14b so it wont go much higher than 10psi

and kinda off topic but did any of you use teflon tape on the threads or is that not necessary?

They are talking about the oil pressure.

The restrictor is really a thing that you asses after running the turbo. If you have oil leakage, and think it is from high pressure, then you get it. Otherwise many people run fine without them.
