Message	that the in-line could possibly do more harm than good if the filter were to become clogged and, thereby, starve the turbo for oil. Further, I was told the inline-filter shouldn't be necessary; but if you do find it to be necessary to filter-out additional debris, etc., then this is likely an indication of a bigger problem somewhere in the system. Just relaying what I heard; don't shoot the messenger.
