Gt35 Oil Restrictor Help Arghhhhh

[zebra]

99% of the time a -10an hose is big enough, but like I said have a look inside the fitting. see how much smaller the hole in the fitting is compared to the ID of the hose, I can tell you now it wont be 5/8" inside the fitting which restricts the oil flow

[GTScotT]

Zeeb you mean the OD of the hose.

The issue is a 5/8 ID will be fine, but buying a 5/8 braided hose might have a smaller ID.

5/8 is 16mm, so if the flowpath (ID) of the hose is 16mm wide then youll be right.

nah I mean inside diameter, the fitting fits inside the hose, ID of the hole inside the fitting by science must be smaller than the hose

[jet2nv]

Internal diameter is 5/8 just checked with the supplier then measured again

so now all i need to find is a fitting for the oil feed with a 1mm restriction

[snozzle]

hmmm, im not running a restrictor on my gt35 and my oil pressure goes to 6bar very very regularly and ive never had any issues with the turbo, i think it even goes to 7.5bar on a cold start.

Im about to fit a 35r to my 260rs, the oil line i bought come with a restrictor, should i use it or not

[jet2nv]

from what garrett/rotamaster/mtq have told me is to use a 1mm restrictor in the oil feed fitting its a must it might not happen staight away but it can happen dual bb turbos need no where near the ammount of oil as a journal or bush bearing as told to me buy these places ive have to many dual bb seals die due to no restriction the seals are only rated to 65psi or so they said and its safer to use a restriction then none soi think im just goin to get one

Exactly, the oil drain is 5/8, but a -10 fitting isnt.

[DCIEVE]

AN10 fitting ID is 12.3mm, AN12 is 15.47mm.

[TiTAN]

and yet the block fitting is 3/4"

[JonnoHR31]

3/4" thread, the actual opening size would be more like 14-15mm

i have a speedflow 1mm drop in for my gt35. oil pump is a nitto running full pressure.

[jet2nv]

yeah i got a 3/4npt to -10an for the block and most likely gonna get the 1mm as advised from garrett and suppliers thanks guys

[GTR260]

Soo restrictor it is! Thanx guys

[jet2nv]

anytime
