Post Turbocharger oil

Installed air research turbo model # T04B35 on my chev 350. It keeps blowing oil into the intake. Installed a new professionally rebuilt cartidage it still does the same thing. Has any one had any experience with this problem. what size oil line is needed to and what size drain. is a restrictor needed in the oil line?

a restrictor is indeed needed in the oil line to the turbo. but as for the size or the restrictor, it depends on the pumping pressure of your oil system. i would call some turbo company like Turbo city, or gale banks. to find the right setup..

A good rule of thumb is to have a drain tube with 3-4 times the inlet area of your feed line.
