Default needle valve

when you guys say use a needle valve to reduce the oil pressure, do you just use the fuel ones? or can you buy the oil one?

are they easy to fit?

Also if i have blown oil past my seals in the turbo is the turbo now any good? i ran the car for about 2 mins with it smokin??

Thanks
Matt

Just go to an hydrolics shop, they can custom make your oil feed and fit a needle valve in the line.


Here's my needle valve, yeps it's a big ******, they didn't have anything smaller. It was a pricy biatch too, about $35.

Dave (leed) told me that over there they go for about $5.
