oil supply for Kokeln Turbo???

[slyguy]

Does anyone have any idea where the proper restrictor could be spec'd/found/made to fit a Kokeln Turbo? (bought the one that was available on the classifieds) The center section has been ID'd as a Turbonetics Ceramic Bearing, I ran the car at idle for about two minutes, it was clearly over oiled as it very quickly spit oil out the zork and dripped down the exhaust side. Much thanks!

Call vision motorsports in lake forest, ca. Kokeln is their brand. I think they got out of the 930 business, but they still work on my car. I bought a turbo from them that came with a braided oil line and adaptors. I'm sure thy will give you the specs for what was in the original kit.

Got a thorough and informative turbo lesson from Dwaine at Vision, finally caught him before he head to the track. Regarding the Kokeln, it is a high end Turbonetics center section based upon a Garrett center section. It's what is considered to be non-sealed, meaning it uses what it needs for oiling and any additional oil is passed through, burnt off or spit out on my driveway. Restrictor comes in the form of running an-3 lines and adapters to 1/8"npt. He seemed to think this still left 15% more oiling than might be necessary but better than oil starve I suspect. Parts on the way...
