I have an -3an ss braided line that i want to replace my hard lines with, but i also have an oil pressure gauge with an adjustable needle valve to regulate the oil pressure. My question is, if i just install the -3an oil line will my pressure be high or being that it's a small diameter line the pressure will be fine?

 

oil pressure is oil pressure. doesnt matter whether its 3/16" ID line or 1" ID line. as long as there is backpressure somewhere pressure will build.

 

That's what i thought, but just wasn't sure!!! :1 So i guess i should leave the adjustable needle valve in there to control the pressure!?

 

The pressure should stay the same. It's the flow that will be effected.

 

Don't listen to this guy. What would he know about oil lines?

 

So i could use a banjo bolt with a .055 to .065 hole in it to control the pressure into the turbo?

 

yes, and no. try it without and see, if you smoke... restrict the line.

 

"if you smoke... restrict the line." using what, the banjo bolt

 

a restrictor....

:1

 

where can i find a restrictor? What size?
