Do I need them if I'm going to be running the n1 pump on my rb20?

My sr20det's hardlines have stock oil restrictors on the ends that connect to the block. I'm guessing the rb's stock hardlines would be the same so using oil restrictors on the N1 should be okay.

i think he is refering to oil restirctors in the block and not the turbo oil feed lines.with an n1 pump it would probably be advised to put some restrictors in as you will proly end up flooding the head with oil, i plan to do something to my motor to keep as much oil in the sump as possible.

Yeah, I'm talking about the ones in the block. The rb26 restrictor are 2.0mm, the N1 are 1.8mm, and the Tomei are 1.5mm. What size are the restrictors in the rb20? Are they pressed in? I thought I remembered mine spining around when I was cleaning the old head gasket material off. How do you get them out? Are the universal for the RB series or do I need to find RB20 specific restrictors.
