turbo question

Swifty1638 · 10-05-2009

I caled PTE after my issues earlier this summer. I was NOT running a restrictor off the turbo, and therefor it blew all my seals out. After 2 months of them sending me a brand new CHRA I got a FP red restrictor for my JB turbo, and have since had NO issues with it. Run a restrictor, made for a JB turbo, or we will be on this topic again. I know for a fact that PTE would not tell you to not run a restrictor. They ask where you get your oil feed from? or was the guy just guessing?

I told him where I was getting my oil from the filter housing and that I don't have my balance shafts removed. I told every company I called all the info I could about my car before they answered the question and they all said given my setup and my oil pressure I should be more than fine to NOT run a restrictor and recommended that I don't
