what weight oil are you using ?

the lower the weight/viscosity the lower the pressure. 5w-30 is the best way to go.

what is your pressure ?

I wouldnt use that thin of an oil on a 100,000+ engine.

use an oil pressure regulator....you don't wanna see more then 55psi at the turbo

www.atpturbo.com has some in-line restrictors for the turbos, i dont know about the sizes and stuff for you guys tho.
ill check into it abit more at some point today and get back. >wink.gif>
going off dustins(bat) pressure, i would think that you prolly would need some kind of restrictor in there.
