copper oil lines, anyone thought of this??
 
i took your standerd breke line for a car and it fits great in the turbo , t28,
and thin i took 1/4 copper line and ran it from the oil sending unit. is this a bad idea??
it seems that it would work and cost les than 5 dollars!
just my 2 cents hope it helps someone and save a little money

no need to send injecters to my door step :3

very bad idea, i had them hooked up for my lsvtec, worse thing i ever did, the fitting kept leaking and blowing off, it was horrible, i had to replace them 3 times before i gave up on them, just buy a oil line kit from ---------------------------, they work very well

factory oil feed lines are hardlines so i dont think you invented anything but they certainly work....
