Yep 3mm restrictor will be perfect.
If it doesn't fit, force it.
If it breaks it needed replacing anyway!

so is that run a bigger line, then restrict it to 3mm just before the turbo, to increase presure, or just a 3mm line?

3mm will be heaps. Got mine at 2 as a restricter, cant remember what size line but it was a fair bit bigger than that

Ive seen the restrictor at the turbo and in the fitting on the block.
Personally I'd put it as close to the turbo as possible
