I have been reading and i am seeing that a .078 restrictor is common for 20g turbos. i just got a braided stainless supply line and i think it killed my turbo the restrictor in it looks really small so i was going to drill it out with about a 2mm drill bit which is pretty much .078. i am coming off of my oil filter housing so just trying to verify that is the size hole i should use. im trying to get everything ready for the next one so i dont have any issues again soon "fingers crossed"

Oh and It seems i will be pulling my head soon due to bad head gasket. i lifted from over boosting a few times at least i think thats what happened as i have never over heated but i will check the head for warping with a straight edge. I was just wondering, assuming the head and everything is ok, what is the best way to preapre the head/block surfaces for a new gasket also what is the best gasket i should get that i wont have to have any special prep done? Im looking at the OEM Multi Layer gasket on extreme psi.com

Any advice would be VERY appreciated!!!
