Hello everyone, My first post was deleted by admin. Anyways, the question is back for those who have not read it.
I am installing a turbo system onto a motorcycle with an oil pressure range far too low for the turbo. I have develloped a restricter that has boosted the pressures to where they need to be but I have a question.
I have a main oil feed restrictor diameter of 5.5mm. It is feeding a 4.25mm turbo oil line as well as two other 4mm feeds. This restrictor has boosted oil pressure 500%. The 5.5mm inlet is fed from the oil pump, the 4mm outlets feed the engine, 4.25mm the turbo.
My question is, does the main 5.5mm feed diameter effect pressure/flow for outlet feed lines in a closed system? or does it just have to be larger than the other feed diameters?
see pic. Forgive the caveman drawing!
