    It does not have one built it, and you should be using a restrictor. It won't starve it of oil, it isn't supposed to get much oil.

    Maybe... I would think it definitely could, but I don't want to say anything for sure, that I'm not positive of. I know you definitely should be using a restrictor.

    Well, typically that would force oil through your seals and you'd be getting some smoking, not to mention oil that you'd notice if you took the intake off. Would it cause this issue? I wouldn't think so. However, it's one less issue. With that said, let's fix this one by one. So let's see where this leads us

    Is it a faulty EBC? Another member just had a similar issue.

    What is EBC? Electronic Boost controller? If that was the case, I wouldnt make 6psi when its set at 6psi.

    Yes EBC is electronic boost controller. But if you are using hondata/VitViper 3/4 port solenoid, it doesn't work like that. You don't set it for 6 psi. You set it for a duty cycle and whatever psi you get is what you get, you then tune the duty cycle based on your findings to get the desired boost level.

    Well it makes the boost numbers we set it at. Currently I am just using mechanical. I left it that way when I ruled the EBC out. Now its set at a 4psi spring. The lowest spring that came with the wastgate.

    What ever happened with this ? Did the issue get resolved or was it ever determined what the problem was ?
