While the turbo won't be making any boost at that point, it will start spinning as soon as there is exhaust pressure, and if the restriction is further downstream in the oil line, you'll run a small risk that the turbo can start up a bit dry. That plus I can't weld convinced me I should stick the restriction as close to the turbo as possible.
My bad.... I'm thinking the twins with the banjo right on top of the turbo... sorry.... Bryan's right though.... the restriction in the iron would be a time consuming trip to the turbo.

The 1/16" AL bar stock I have isn't quite as flimsy as a soda can, so I don't think it will leak
Gotcha.... yeah... some .063" AL bar stock should hold up better than a soda can
