Restrictor banjo bolt
Ive just changed from a Vf turbo to a TD05FE but i've used the original banjo bolt from the oil feed to the block.Now im aware that its advisable to drill the restrictor hole out to 2mm before refitting now is this necessary or can you live without it?

Because the TD05 is a thrust bearing turbo as opposed to a ball-bearing turbo, the turbine shaft "floats" on a bed of oil. with the BB Banjo bolt, you'll not get emough oil to do this effecticely.
AFAIK it is actually the Oilfeed-block Banjo bolt that will need enlarged.
