Need fast answer... oil feed line for the turbo?
Is this the unit that people are using to connect the oil feed line for their turbo? http://www.racingbeat.com/resultset....rtNumber=11802

Oh yeah. TO make your life easier.
Here are adapter plates so you don;t have to weld stuff up.

Just get some AN hose and you've got a nice setup.

I used both.
I have a 3and feed line with a restricotr inline.
Then I have the 10an return line.
These adapters make it so you can just screw/bolt in the lines without any fitment/welding problems.
Once you get the turbo you'll know exactly what I mean and you'll be very happy about these.

******Use a 3an or 4an feed line when you do it.
You may also have to add a restrictor inline if the internal restrictor of the Hitachi has been removed.*******
What does this restrictor look like and where is it's original location? How big of a hole is in this restrictor? Is the original location in the bore of the oil feed fitting in the turbo?

The restrictor is inside the cartridge. The normal opening is the size of a pencil and the restricor is pressed into it.
My turbo rebuilder removed it in a fashion in which he couldn't reuse it.
So I got an external one.(just a step down AN adapter)
So far I haven't had any oil burning/leaking problems since I have reduced the inlet.

The above is why I showed some interest in the mention of the orifice. I don't see that orifice in my other turbos. Way down in the bore on the turbo I do see a smaller hole in a device that runs horizonal. Still undecided on what to do other than getting back with my rebuilder. Just mulling things over.

I had the same problem.
I was pouring oil through the exhaust.
I pulled the 3 mile rebuilt turbo and brought it to the guys.
They took it apart in front of me and checked it out.
It was in perfect shape. He mentioned that the hitachi units center cartridge use a small restrictor in it. He had to destroy it to clean behinds it which he said usually collects crap.
He said that normally he doesn't have problems with this.
So he assumed the high oil pressure of my car was causing it.
So I removed the feed line and make a 3an line.
The problem went away after that until my rear rotor went without fuel.
Then the blowby started the leaking again(not as bad).
I am now open venting the system for testing purposes.(it's a rebuild engine w/65psi rotor faces right now)

is "an" equivelant to gauge somewhat?
And is the restrictors job to limit the oilflow? Why not just use a smaller line (sorry for the questions). And one more thing.. Where can I find a restrictor if my turbo doesnt have one?

I used the adapter you are talking about on my set up.
