Default Precision turbo oil feed question?

So i have this precision ball bearing turbo, and i know that your supposed to run an oil restrictor for ball bearing turbo's like garrett, ect. . but i noticed that this one has somekind of restrictor already in it. I'm curious if it is its own restrictor if i still need to run one.

on hondas i think you still want to add a restrictor since we have such high oil pressure, that hole may not be small enough. maybe double check with the manufacturer but either .035" or .065" is the size you need

That is correct. We need to know what size that turbocharger is, as well as what exhaust wheel is used, but typically on GT30R and GT35R, .035" restrictors are used.

i'm correct on which part? that its , its own restrictor. or yes i need to run a restrictor. people were saying restrictors are mainly for garrett ball bearing turbo's and precision is different and i wouldn't have to run one.

Yes, you need to run an additional restrictor of .035" in this case. Don't over confuse yourself
