what weight oil are you using ?
the lower the weight/viscosity the lower the pressure. 5w-30 is the best way to go. what is your pressure ? -------------------- |

www.atpturbo.com has some in-line restrictors for the turbos, i dont know about the sizes and stuff for you guys tho.
ill check into it abit more at some point today and get back.  going off dustins(bat) pressure, i would think that you prolly would need some kind of restrictor in there. ::Edit:: somthing like this : oil restrictor
