Default Still need a oil restrictor with this inlet?

I saw on ebay they sell this type of oil inlet flage and its so small and says it helps with restricting oil, should i still use a oil restrictor or do you think this will restrict it enought?

Just buy a feed line from stealth.


That feed sux. It doesn't come with a 90* fitting to go into the turbo. Line will hit the hood.

More. A straight is cheap, not the 90s and 45s.

The worst part about those lines is the vinyl that is used inside. They don't use oil-resistant rubber. It's vinyl, and I have seen a couple fail, OIL EVERYWHERE.

i think a flange and gasket on the oil feed side is just an opportunity for leakage.
Why not simply screwing a oil fitting directly in the hole?
