there's really no need to use one unless your feed hole isn't threaded on the turbo, but most are, so you just use the 1/8npt -> AN fitting provided with almost all oil line kits. my feed hole wasn't threaded, but i just used a 1/8 tap and threaded it in about 5 minutes. if you want to spend the money, go for it, they work fine, but yeah, use a gasket

put grease on the tap to catch the shavings, pull it out every couple turns and wipe the grease/shavings off and put fresh grease on it
