Anyone using a oil restrictor with a 3AN oil feed? I got a t3/60-1 garret and was woundering if I should put a restrictor on the feed to turbo?

 

would also like to know...

 

no need to use a restrictor.

i use one

 

Just use one, I'm sure it's less then 10 bucks. And gives you a peace of mind that you shouldn't blow oil seals. I ran one on my last setup.

And if it is not the right apeture and size, that piece of mind will go right out of the window. So it went from $10, to over $400.

For -3AN from the sending unit from the back of the block, it is not necessary, as Mike stated.

Also, make sure that more importantly, that the return line you're using has no 90 degree angles from the flange or the pan, and that it is a smooth gravity-fed transition. That saves more turbos than you think.
