my tuner informed me that im putting more oil out than i should. told me to look for an oil restrictor pill.

QUOTE (Cuts_the_Pilot @ Feb 19, 2009 - 4:26 PM)  you only need one if your running a ball bearing turbo, ball bearings need vastly less oil then plain bearing. People without ball bearing turbos need them too, its not just limited to BB turbo applications its not just about quantity its also about pressure The OP is running a 7afte, 7afes are known to have a higher oil pressure than the range of pressure which should be seen at the turbo.
