I've tried making my own brake lines and it sucked. You can buy them with the ends on them already, but the problem is that the oil feed line has two different sized ends on it. The bending part is easy, it's making the inverted flare that sucks. My vote? Braided SS lines. They make turbo installs/removals 80 times easier.

If you need the sizes... block fitting is an M12 x 1.00 and the turbo fitting is a 7/16" inverted flare.
