Hi guys, wondering do I need to fit a restrictor to my oil feed for holset hx35, fitting it to an om605. Thanks James

No, but you do need to fit the biggest drain that you can.

Thanks for the response, yes I have gone for a drain from a cummins dodge ram which is 19mm.

When I was doing my 606 conversion including a VNT Garrett turbo, all the material and advice I could dig up at the time indicated the largest drain I could fit. So far, so good. If you have a hydraulic hose shop nearby, don't hesitate to use them. Good drainage= less oil into the boost air. You'll still get some but the goal is to minimize it via good drainage and turbo bearings.
