The ISR Performance Turbo Oil Restrictor is a 0.036-inch orifice oil restrictor for use with ISR ball bearing turbochargers. 7/16-24 threaded body with a -3AN male outlet. Required equipment for any dual-ball-bearing turbo running off engine oil pressure. without it, full pressure oil supply will damage the turbo's seals and push oil past the compressor or turbine.
What It Does
Dual-ball-bearing turbochargers don't need anywhere near full engine oil pressure for lubrication. The ball bearings themselves are sealed and need only enough oil for cooling and to top up what splash and bearing seepage takes away. Running unrestricted oil supply on a ball bearing turbo forces too much oil through the center cartridge faster than it can drain, which causes oil to back up past the seals and end up in the intake (compressor side) or exhaust (turbine side). The fix is restricting the oil supply with a small orifice. 0.036 inch is the right size for the ISR ball bearing turbo line.
Critical Compatibility
For ISR ball bearing turbos only. Do NOT use this restrictor with ISR journal bearing turbos. Journal bearings actually need higher oil flow than ball bearings, and restricting their supply will cause premature wear or outright failure.
NOT for use with:
- IS-RS3871 (journal bearing)
- IS-RST25/28 (journal bearing)
- Any other journal bearing turbo
Required For
- ISR RSX3076 (dual ball bearing T3)
- ISR RSX3582 (dual ball bearing T3)
- Any other ISR ball bearing turbo
Fitment
- Universal -3AN oil feed line plumbing
- 7/16-24 thread (standard AN restrictor thread)
What's in the Box
- 1x ISR Performance turbo oil restrictor (0.036-inch orifice, 7/16-24 thread, -3AN male)
