So for the second time my oil feed has cracked and begun to leak where it goes into the turbo. The guy who did used i steel hard line flared at the turbo just like a break line. He says its cracking because of the steel on iron or what ever.. i dunno wither way he says he does not know what kind of fitting is actually suppose to go their and that it will just happen again. What are you guys using and where can i pick it up??

I think that its a much better rout to go to make your own line yourself. You can get the fittings and cut the line, then use a vice to press the fittings into the steel braided, 'plastic' lined hose. Thats what everyone else uses for their oil lines. People will charge an arm and a leg to make them for you but theres really nothing to it.

As long as you know the dimension you can go to home depot or some hose shop and make your own for cheaper.

lol go to the pepboyz near you and buy a brake line. dont recall the size but it was metric, but then you will need a restrictor pre turbo oil inlet...

my current oil feed line is copper not one drip, flares everywhere

(8psi hard use) I should take my restrictor out and see if I get blow by the seal then, 5/8 drain ftmfw
