Do you remember what sizes you ran?
I currently have been running;
Sump = -10an
Turbo Oil exit = -10an
Water in = -6an
Water out = -6an
Also what size oil restrictor are you using on your setup out of interest? cant remember what mine is...
with a BB turbo its hard to judge if you need to over or under restrict until you either have oil out of the compressor or lots of smoke :/

I used torques fittings on eBay , and 10mm silicon hose and barbed fittings on the turbo .
As you said I believe the restriction on the turbo feed varies from turbo to turbo

Pirtek uk, they call them army navy imperial fittings. Only available from them in stainless though.

do you know if JIC and AN fitting sizes are the same just made to take different amounts of PSI?
Eg is a -4an AN the same as a -4 JIC? I have googled this over and over and no one seems to know..
Just need an oil restrictor that will fit the spoox's -3 JIC and fi the turbos -4an
