oil restrictor with a 16g?

[turbophein]

do i need a oil restrictor if i am feeding my evo 16g from the oil housing. i ported the relief in the housing but i have yet to replace my oil pressure sender for my gauge so i don't know my oil pressure yet. as soon as it gets warm out i am installing all my new parts and my new evo16g and don't want to over oil it.

thanks

Why not oil the turbo from the head like Mitsubishi intended? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif

Because it's not as cool as a stainless steel line coming to the top. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif

IIRC, I thought the oil line is suppose to be pointed down? not coming from the top?

16g/14bs have restrictors built in them.

the threads on the head were stripped and were leaking, so i sealed that up and now i am running from the OFH. but turbofonz answered the question, thanks
