Adjustable oil resistor
 

Hey,

Did try a search but it dosent seem to be working?

Turbos due to go on next weekend so im just trying to sort all of the misc things before i go ahead.

Ive got an adjustable oil resistor for my t3 and im unsure how far i need to adjust it... would half way do?

thats it for the moment....

Thanks
Marc

what is it an ssauto or something? if not id just leave it full open and if you notice any smoking or puking from the seals slowly close it little by little til it goes away.

is that how everyone else does it ??? dont really fancy screwing my seals...

issit adjustable oil pressure resistor we're talking about herE?

Re: Adjustable oil resistor
 

umm yea.. dont listen to that haha
you should only need an oil restrictor if its ball bearing and.. what i did on my old set up was setup two gauges.. one was engine oil pressure. restrictor and then turbo oil presure it was pretty baller and you have to have it pretty much closed the whole way before it will evan reduce oil pressure.. but put a gauge after it and it will tell you ..but higher rpm's more oil pressure.. so.. idk i set mine at like 7-10 at idle..

the thing is im having too high oil press for my turbo now and it blew 2 x unit turbo seal in 1 yr period. now i know i need oil press restrictor but i do have plan for oil cooler soon.

now if i hook up a restrictor now, for sure the press to my turbo will reduce but will i have sufficient return press for my oil cooler and thn back to my oil pan?

cool it before it goes to the restrictor with a plate from the oil filter

I wouldn't throw the oil cooler into the mix unless you're positive that it's needed. On the restrictor:

A good starting point would be 3/4 closed, and see if you have a smoking problem. If it still smokes, close it a little more and give it time to burn off the oil in the downpipe. If it still smokes, choke the bitch all the way and do a couple good rips. Then take it home and pry the pieces of wheel out of your intercooler. lol :6
