Re: where do oil restrictors go? (Boostage)
It is my understanding that the .06 is the general size that will work with any T3/T04 "sized" Turbo. It just prevents the turbo's oil seals from being exposed to 75 psi all the time. I would put it in the oil feed port for the turbo and screw the oil feed line into it. I wouldn't thread it directly into the block, the block has a BSPT thread not NPT. It may also take longer to fill the feed line, starving the turbo for oil immediately after cranking the car.

I don't know what the hell he's saying.
Get a -3an line, don't know if that is the same as .06 or whatever you mentioned but this is the right size you need.
IF you have a line larger than -3an, you need an oil restrictor. I believe this goes right before the oil line goes into the turbo.
You need a BSPT to NPT fitting to put into the back of the block where the oil sending unit orignially was. Block is bspt, but the oil line is npt.
