Oil restrictor
ive heard some talk about oil restrictors....i believe they're used on engines with alot of oil pressure...i was just wondering if our cars need a restrictor or not?
there is big debates on when and when not to use oil restrictors, however most of the time its just guys speculating.
what i have learned is if its a journal bearing turbo you do not want a restrictor, if its a ball bearing try without and if the motor smokes use a restrictor.
