I've done some searching but couldn't find anything specific...

I'll be installing the 16g soon and figured that I could feed the oil from the ofh and use a restrictor if needed.

Whats a good size restrictor to use (stock motor)?

Where is the best place to get them?

I'd go with .075" on the stock engine. They're on eBay....a simple search uncovers a pile depending on your oil line fitting type.

It's best to run the oil line which uses the banjo fitting at the turbo, too. The lines which have the little adapter which threads right into the turbo's center housing allows oil to be blasted directly into the housing, and TD05H turbos don't particularly like that much as they aren't designed to be fed that way. The banjo fitting slows the oil flow down a little by adding some obstacles on it's path to the turbo.
