still fighting that oil issue....

never made a clean pass...the one I tried also had crank sync issues

root cause appears the motor makes high oil pressure (good for motor, bad for turbo I suppose)

Is it dumb to infuse a restrictor in the line to reduce flow to the turbo? Sounds scarey but something that may help the issue.

Isnt it pretty common to run a restrictor? I know i have done it alot in the street stuff we build. Mostly just use a nitrous jet.
