I just made a 1/16" oil restrictor today for my gt28rs turbo. Is this going to be too restrictive. I noticed that some people reccomend a 1/8" restrictor. It seems to me that this will give it enought to keep it lubricated but I don't want to mess up my brand new 850$ turbo...I know the seal can only take 8-10 psi...please any help would be awsome...I'm about to install my freshly rebuilt SR and I don't want anything to go wrong. Thanks

1/16" should be about right on the money. The restrictor fitting the ATP sells uses a .060" opening(1/16").
