adjusting oil pressure
i need to lower my oil pressure and i was wondering what everyone uses to control the pressure to the turbo.
i have recently rebuilt my t3 and i want to take every precaution that i don't blow it again.
if anyone has any suggestions that would be greatly appreciated.

Re:adjusting oil pressure
i'm running a 87' 300zx t3 turbo. never been rebuilt. no oil pressure adjusting valve, just a -4an steel braided line. hard brake line will work good too. aslong as it's -4an. the small diameter keeps the pressure adequate. i've been boosted 4 months now, no oil getting past the seals issues.
