Help with Restrictor...
 
Ok guys, I have a T25 that is getting way to much oil pressure and I want to build and install a restrictor. Well I am having no luck in being able to build anything. My main problem is finding anything that will accually thread up to my feed line and turbo fitting. I took some pics of the line and fitting. Can anyone help me figure out what I need to build this restrictor??? Or can someone post where I can pick one up that will screw right up to what I have? Thanks!

a dsm t25 should not need a restrictor, its got a tiny feed hole in it already and with a 3an line you should be good.

When you need a restrictor just go by a hydraulics shop and get a .060 restrictor they sell them in many diff threads.

I just made my own the other night, I took that an fitting that screws into the turbo, drilled the hole in the turbo side of it a little bigger, took a tap and threaded it, locktited a set screw into it and drilled a 1/16" hole in the set screw. done.

This is exactly what I did. It was extremely easy. Thanks! I'll let you know how it works tomarrow. ;D

yeah pretty simple, I would make sure oil comes out first though, aim it into a bucket while someone else starts the car. I have only had mine on for a few days, so far so good.
