They do have a large orifice filter specifically for journal bearings (check their website), but no worries if no filter desired.

Currently he's at $925 USD shipped/each, with line + filter. Working on getting that to $875/piece, and then it would be even less if no filter. I think RTM does/did sell a similar oil line, so you can explore that option if there is one.

Gaetan had the large orifice one for a JB turbo. My theory is, if you have particles large enough to damage the turbo floating in your oil, you have much bigger problems to worry about.

Google is telling me if your not running a BS than you need a restrictor as pressure from the housing is going to be too much, or are you planning to run from the head Sal?

Bryan, FP's page on the 68HTA specifically states it must be fed from the OFH. It need a lot of a high zinc oil to stay happy. Best bet is to run a -3an line from the OFH and the 2g oem drain, as it's bigger. If you happen to notice and smoking then you can add a restrictor but for the most part, this combo will work fine, unless you have insanely high oil pressure.

Interesting, ok so in that case definitely will pass on the fp one as the is -4.
Thanks Jason

I have a BSD and pretty high pressure, but I could always try the - 3AN and see how it works out.

Best he can do is $750 shipped, per turbo (w. internal wastegate).

Normal price on it would be $999 + $50 for IWG, plus shipping, so about 1075-1100 per turbo.

If you want to make this happen let me know and I can facilitate it. It works out to just under $1k CAD.

He might be able to do even better, i got mine for 629.00 internally gated plus 31.67 shipping (Invoice Oct 2015).
It was an ongoing sale that last for several months. It may have been related to parts availability and, if i recall correctly, not all parts were actually made in house.
That's what i remember but i could be wrong, it's been a long time ago.

He can't, or certainly isn't willing to at this point. I've gone back and forth a fair bit on the subject... The reason they were so cheap for a while is they had a huge surplus of parts and now they've got the opposite issue, which is exacerbated by the fact that they use the turbine wheel in a number of different turbos. Also, that purchase was 3 years ago, but always a good reference to have...

I'm not in a rush, but I don't think it would be ideal to sit on this for months because I don't know if he'll honour it too much down the road. I hadn't originally intended to go to something between the Big 16G and the HX35, but with the Malibu restoration in full swing and a full hot kit for a TS T3 being super expensive, it may make more sense to do it this way.

As I mentioned, I can have them shipped to me and provide a favourable (relative to the banks) exchange rate...i.e. market rate smile
