I'm not very familiar with the 16g,not sure if the stock line or the turbo itself has a stepdown in the orifice to lower pressure/volume.Maybe Ben knwos?......If it doesn't a restrictor may be the easy answer.I've installed them on several Hondas that smoked and it fixed the issue.

But to answer BSeriesTurbo's question, no I can't use the rebuild kit...

No restrictor that I'm aware. The orifice(if your gonna run a restrictor) should only be like .6 or .060...can't remember which but its pretty small. Most turbo honda oil problems are the return line being insufficient size, kinked, or too much crankcase pressure. Most all turbo's should be just fine with the pressures.

All of the times I've encountered this,the drain was sufficient size and working correctly,although that could certainly play a part in it,no doubt.Unless the turbo was just completely worn out,the restrictor fixed the issue.........It's really odd-many times they've work just fine without it,but for whatever reason sometimes even a brand new turbo won't take the pressure.

I believe it's .060"-0.065 for journal bearing,and 0.035" for BB.When I first ran into this issue,I contacted Garrett(I had a brand new turbo from them that was leaking past the seals),and their specs on oil delivery was something like a max of 45psi,and the volume was really low also.A -3 or -4 line at the 80-100psi you'll get off the pressure sending unit bung is a lot of oil.

I usually run a -3an and have a well setup drain(and vent system depending on boost levels) and they work fine, unless like you said worn out.
