Is it water cooled?
The water primarily cools it and the oil also cools. If it is not water cooled then you ONLY the oil will be cooling it. You could slightly increase the size of your restrictor if you think it will help.
But remember, this turbo is mounted FAR away from the exhaust manifold and less likely to run as hot as it would right off the manifold.
The turbo may have been basically fine, but those hot spots could have developed before hand since it was used and not rebuilt. What kind of car was it run on before?

It's only oil cooled. Good point about the mounting location, though if it isn't flowing enough oil I could imagine the turbo getting too hot. I'll talk to the tech tomorrow to see what he thinks about the ideal size of a restrictor. I got a call that they've finished with the rebuild ($375  ). I was told it was new at the time I got ahold of it, and from the way it looked I can believe it. Though, I know I could clean up the turbine housing to make it look new too.

Kinda, but with a T3 flange inlet/ 4-bolt outlet turbine housing that's meant for an external wastegate. I'll probably switch from a .63 to a .82 exhaust side this time around.
