I and another friend used -3an fittings on ours and had not one problem. His ran for over a year with no problems.

Anything larger will cause to much oil in the turbo and blows out the seals.

One reason they are cheap turbos

Yes. I am a second vouch. You do need a oil restrictor. I run a -3an Fast-turbo oil feed line kit with an Autometer .063 Restrictor. I don't have any problems.

hahaha I was the same way. I got the turbo in a trade so I was like why not lets try it. Hearing all the stories about them, I set the turbo up with the -3an fitting because a friend ran his like that for over a year with no problems.

Everyday I drove it I wondered if I was going to have a problem. Never did though.
