I ran a -3an and STILL needed a restrictor!

-3an = less volume, more psi.

Of course, my turbo is a small Mitsubishi turbo, so it's oil inlet may be different from that of a more common KA suited turbo.

i personally would always run a restrictor unless your turbo has a built in restrictor. certain garret GT series have built in restrictors

the fitting that mated the -3an feed line to my garrett was 1\8th. no issues.
