Default any way to affordable regulate oil pressure at turbo?

is there a way to affordably see and regulate oil pressure at the turbo

thread title sums up my question. I am newto turbocharging, my car is on jackstands atm I am fabbing up a turbo kit that I have been peicing together for some time.

I know it is reccomended to run a .65 oil restrictor on journal bearing t3/4's but is there anything else that can be done besides the restrictor? it would be nice to have a gauge attatched to the oil line as well maybe even in the cabin.

any thoughts or answers are greatly appreciated google didn't turn much up for me.

Little confused by the post, you want something to regulate oil besides a restrictor ? Why reinvent the wheel ? I'd also get an oil pressure gauge anyways on the feed line to see what the pressure looks like, before tossing a restrictor in.

I only want to buy something once. it would be nice to be able to select an exact oil pressure IMO. I dont feel like buying a new turbo because I was neglecting a part of my build
