So i got my turbo line kit set up but there is a option for a oil oil restrictor size .03 and .06 I dont know what one to use. I will be runing 16-18 PSI on a S14 T28. I dont want to little oil or too much..

It's a journal bearing, is it not? If so you don't really have to worry about too much oil. I don't run a restrictor on the oil feed for my turbo.

Or you could be a smartass if that's what tickles you.

Garrett seems to agree with me. But I bet they haven't got a clue what they're talking about either.
