Restrictor Pills?
Whats the deal with the restrictor pills? From all I can gather is that a couple of the vaccuum lines have these "pills" in them. Can someone please enlighten me and tell me which lines have the pills before I do this hose job and replace all the hoses with Silicon "pillless" hoses...

The pill is just a small metal pellet with a hole drilled trough it. They can be removed from the factory hose and inserted into your new silicone lines. As Sgtblue has indicated they are in the two lines that come off the primary turbo compressor housing.

Bajaman - Not positive, but I don't think "stock" '93 ever had pills built into the turbo?
Also, RR93 - Make sure you understand what is in your car before you start. If the car has been previously modified, the pills may have been removed or redrilled. If this were the case, do not put stock pills back in the system!

What you are asking about is installed in the oil feed line(line from top driver side of block to turbo oil feed). Rx7store sells a line and restrictor that should work for you setup, if you are running a 67mm or smaller journal bearing turbo you likely will not need one.

Bringing an old thread back from the dead to add some pictures because it's one of the first search results on this topic.
The two lines coming off of the front Turbo have the pills in them. This is from a 93 FD.
