Like i said before i think ima get the s15 spec r t28 turbo for my redtop...
i talk to a friend of mine and he told me that there is something extra i have to put on the turbo to work properly, he doesnt remember what is it exactly, but he said that w/o it the turbo will go out in about 7 months... he said something about the turbo getting to much oil...
does anyone know what is he talking about????

restrictor valve, you will need the intake elbow and outlet elbow , and i highly recommend taka coolant feed, oil feed and coolant return lines.

im pretty sure a turbo off an s14/s15 will already have an internal restrictor.

cool, thanks...
and, no shawn im not going, prolygo to watch...
i got an adaptor that can be used for the intake... enjuku racing has it for 34 bucks...
how does that restrictor valve loooks like? where can it be found?

i cannot use the stock elbow that goes to the downpipe?

you have to bend the coolant feed line to make it work, and again...if its coming straight off of an s15 i doubt you will need a restrictor.

more info on the restrictor and i also post thrad on zilvia

go ahead and order the restrictor just in case...from research i have learned that you dont need a restrictor if you run the stock hardlines with the banjo fitting because the restrictor is built into the banjo fitting...

if you run braided lines it will be too much oil , i just bought a .06 restrictor for 21$....i think this is why my turbo blew also, when i pulled it off yesterday there was oil all over the compressor housing..
