Default T6 Borg questions

I have a t6 s475, and I'm having a hard time locating the oil feed and return fittings for it.

Also, do I need to run a restrictor for the oil feed? If so, where can I locate one?

Thanks

We do not run restrictors on any of our BW turbos.

I would never run a restrictor with a BW turbo. I smoked a S48o within about 3 min of putting it on the truck with a -3 feed line. Swapped to a 5/16 hard line and never a problem since.

That's good to know. Not that you say that I think I've heard that before.

I was planning on running -4 line to it.

Just call the guys at RPS. They have the BW specific stuff for anything to do with them.

Every person I know that runs BW, including myself, are running an aftermarket high volume pump. BW like plenty of oil.

I run a -4 feed, unrestricted. -12 return with minimal fittings to get the job done. Less fittings, less restriction. I haven't seen a single puff of smoke since I've ran it like this.

FWIW, I run a -6 feed and -12 return, no restrictors. I went -6 because a lot of the -4 premade lines I purchased did not retain the proper inside diameter that they should.
