double oil restictor
so this will probably seem like a stupid question but I just bought a garrett gt 2871r and was considering running 2 .0.35 restrictors one from the block to oil line feed and one on the turbo end of the oil line feed. Does that seem like overkill, should I just use one restrictor on the turbo end of the line?

Whats the point? You only need one.

To keep from blowing out the seals
Well my current oil line has 2 restictors on it, the new line I got has some kind of round fitting on the end with a hole in it..like the water line that goes from the block to the turbo. The restictor I have is actually a bolt with a hole in the bottom of it

I know what restrictors do, hell I made my own. However having 2 is pointless. It accomplishes the same result but more hassle.

Yeah I get it. All GT series turbos come with a restrictor. .030 for BB. I am running a homemade one on my daily B13 GT28.

sweet, then I'll just run the one I have and get a bolt for the other end that is open
