Thumbs down Turbo rattling

Hey guys. My turbo is rattling at 2500rpm and stops after 2700. I just put in the oil restrictor on my ball bearing turbo and don't know what else to do. There isn't any shaft play and everything is bolted down tightly. Any suggestions?

Not good brother, mine made that same sound about a month ago and my bearings died shortly after. I called Garrett and they said that this was more than likey due to the high oil pressure blowing the seals on the bearings. You said you just bought the restrictor which is good, but it might be a little too late. Hopefuly not though

FYI I had around 1000 miles on my turbo without a restrictor before it went.

Hmmm... I am pretty sure that my oil feed had a restrictor on it, its just a tiny opening on the end of the oil feed line right?
