New here and some questions
I'm new here
I'm from The Netherlands.
I found this site through google.com when I was searching for some usefull turbo info
I read a lot on this forum so it's now time for me te register because I have a couple of questions.
My car is a Volkswagen Corrado 2.0L 16V (9A)
Now I have rebuilt the engine and installed a K04 turbo.
My first K04 turbo was dead within a 800miles. The second was also dead within 300miles. (bad luck I guess)
So I ditched the K04'S and go buy myself a Garrett GT28R.
My question for you guys is
1) do I need to use a oilristrictor?
2) I'm going to install a oilpressure gauge. May I use a y-splitter of my oilhousing? One for feeding the turbo and one for the oilpressure gauge?
Found this one at atpturbo.com
Maybe is this one usefull for my oilpressure gauge?

2. Yes you can use a Y-splitter for the oil pressure guage off the oil housing. I would install the Y-splitter close to where the oil feed line connects to the turbo.
