No. Maybe a pro like Steve will tell you 'why', but if not, I can try in layperson words.
The restrictors reduce the amount of oil going to the cam towers, which is one of the areas that needs it the most. It increases the amount of oil that stays on the other side of the restrictors, which happens to be where your pressure sender is as well, thus raising the needle on your gauge a little bit and giving you a warm fuzzy feeling that you've done the right thing.
That's my understanding

Make sure you are using a good 15w-50 or 20w-50 oil.
