I'm sorry if I have missed a clear answer to my question in one of the holset threads, I have gone through them and may have missed it.
I got my car started and I have my oil pressure gauge on the feed line at the filter housing because it wouldn't fit at the turbo. Cold pressure is around 75psi then at warm idle its around 20psi. Slowly free reving, it gets to 75psi by 7k. I plan to shift at 8k, but didn't rev it that high since I saw 75psi already. I'm using -4an SS line with the holset adapter from extremepsi.
I'm not sure if a restrictor is neccessary because I am just on the upper limit at the housing, so I would assume the turbo is seeing if not the same pressure, slightly less. But this was also all done just sitting in neutral, so maybe my pressure is different if I was actually driving on the street.
I'm pulling the turbo, so I figured I would put the restrictor on now if need be.
Do I need a restrictor? It would have to go at the filter housing. If so, how do I determine the appropriate size for my circumstance? Thanks
