well i heard back from earl's fittings today and after talking to them 3-4 times on the phone, digital pictures and exact thread measurements. Lloyd who has been very helpful told me they dont make the oil fitting. maybe its somthing that is a japan only part, or a custom job they did but, that he has nothing anywhere that has the restrictor hole. soooo i guess i gotta call apexi usa again today. i think this time i will ask for apexi japan contact info. hahahaha you guys who said the apexi single turbo couldnt get rebuilt in the states werent kidding. i cant even get the oil fitting in the states. i miss my baby

I like what Mike said. Just get the regular fitting with out the restrictor hole. Then buy a socket head pipe plug, drill it out to the size you need for the orifice. Drill/tap the earls fitting, thread the pipe plug into the fitting. Bing! done.
