Hey guys, alright so I bought a sheepey built kit a while back along with my 6262 journal bearing from sheepey. During the build i had asked alex from sheepey what restrictor size I should run with the journal bearing. He told me to run a .30 restrictor and they never had any problems doing so. So I ran a -3 feed with a .30 restrictor and -10 return... 3 hours on the dyno, brought it home took one ride with with it and noticed a huge amount of shaft play to the point where it's starting to touch the housing and blades grinding off! I've read all over now that everyone one uses .60 - .65 restrictors on thier journal bearings. I just want to confirm this information befor I run a .65! My turbo is on its way back to precision for a rebuild. Oh and FYI I called precision and they told me never to run a restrictor on journal bearing

 

.030 bb .060 jb I have the same turbo I ran no restrictor at first and it started smoking at idle. I installed .060 restrictor it helped but still smokes randomly going to rebuild when I pull the head for head work. Vibrant makes a really nice one.

Yep that's the exact one I have! I had the .30 jet in it, I removed it last night and I'm asuming with the jet out the fitting (un restricted by jet) is .60 correct?

 

No you need the .060 jet installed it comes with both.

 

Hmm the description of mine says it comes with a .30 and .45 orfice jet, and the fitting has a .60 orfice (unrestricted)

I guess I was worng, I thought it was 3 separate jets I don't have that one just using a nitrous jet in mine.
