Default Oil Feed line for front mount turbo

For those that had the problem of having too much oil pressure going to their turbo's and causing that constant oil burning problem, i'd like to know those who used "nos" jets to act as orifice's, what size nos jets u used to help with that?

Thanks

you should use a 60-65 for a journal bearing and some manufacturers recommend a 25-45 for smaller ball bearings

Bump. I would also like to know? sorry for bringing up an old-ish thread. The only thing I don't fully understand about front mount turbo's is the oil/coolant lines. Do we really have to drill into the block/oil pan or can we buy a special oil pan with fittings for a turbo already??
