O yea, My 1/4 NPT compression elbow

Re: Homemade oil restrictor writeup
 

so if i went the set screw method, do i screw it in the turbo itself or in a fitting, because i will just drill the setscrew that cam with my oil line kit.

I think its all personal preference, I put mine in the turbo, but that leave no way of monitoring pressure. so its up to you.

---- ATP :7......bought that ---- and it broke :3......customer service was the worst part.

Re: Homemade oil restrictor writeup
 

yeah but do i need to get a adapter and thread it into that or can i thread it in just the turbo, im just worried it will rattle loose and fall in the bearing housing.

Damm this thread is still going?? I ended up getting a stealthmode restrictor. Thing works great. Just wanted to mention that. I know when I had this last project going the last thing I wanted to play with was a HM Restrictor. my 2 cents yo!

Re: Homemade oil restrictor writeup
 

the hole in the turbo is tapered, atleast in the sc61 so the fitting will stop turning, it only can come out in one direction.

thanks.

What i don't understand is that you can use brake line as a oil feed line...well why don't they make a oil restrictor that will thread into the turbo thand the brake line will thread into the restrictor. I am just going to use my brake line and run a tap through it and than use a set screw and drill it out...sounds like the best idea...

Re: Homemade oil restrictor writeup
 

Don;t use regular brake line unless you clamp it to the motor in a few spots so that it has no movement. If it can wiggle any it will crack. Don't ask how I know. At the very least pack a fire extinguisher with you.
