Oil Restrictor needed on a 3SGTE with Garrett GT30?
Okay, I am in the middle of getting all my parts for my new turbo, and I am going to be running a Garrett GTX3071r on a worked 3SGTE.
I have been reading on garrett's website and they specify the the oilflow into the turbo should be no more than 40-45psi, and for most cars the oil restrictor should be a 0.040",
Apparantly too much oil will cause windage in the cartidge and slow the spool as well as leak past the oil seals, then I have also read on the US forum some people run GT35r's all day long for over a year without no restrictors.
Has anyone else got a ball bearing turbo on a MR2? What is your setup?
