All Turbo Oil lines have Restrictor?

I own a set of Earls S14 (Frsport) turbo lines for my Stock Turbo on 1 of my cars (not sure if it has a restrictor = not a BB turbo anyway), and just recently Bought a GT2860 from someone (KA-T guy) that Included an oil line on it but has no Banjo fitting.

Its damn near 2ft long though,...and the Freaking fitting is on there so good/squeezed in a Tight spot,you need to separate the turbo to get it off it seems.I don't want to do that

Wanna make sure it has a restrictor in it since I don't feel like separating the turbo to Get it off to install a Proper Earls Oil line in its place that I have w/ a Banjo fitting on 1 end.




You can see how its Wedged between the Housing.I can get it to spin @ the bottom just a bit but then it Hits the other housing and won't "Split" the fitting to free it up.

Looks like I'd need to alost r-clock the turbo to get an Earl's line to Fit good between there anyway.DAMNIT!

damn - No one?

Garrett GT2860RS turbo - what size Restrictor do I need or is it considered the "LINE" (in diameter) itself as the Restrictor?

that line looks like a regular -3AN line, you still need an allen hex key type of restrictor screw into your -3AN flare to 1/8"NPT male-male adapter.

For journal bearing, use 0.063", BB turbo use 0.042" or 0.035" restrictor.
