Thanks for the comments guys. I would say if your going to make your own lines, the most problems will be found at the block fitting and the drain flange. If you buy these two things from Tuner Toys, the rest should be pretty easy. -Steve

I guess that would depend on your budget, knowledge, and overall class of ghetto that the car fits in.

If I were rich I would buy the stealthmode kit and pay someone to install it.. then again if I was rich I wouldn't even be turboing a honda (something more exotic maybe).

Brake lines can be a real ----------er; like the 30 feet (combined total) I have running to the transmission/oil coolers on the truck. May not be as bad for just running to a turbo, but it's your call

I've done both.. and both work just fine. Stealths kit is bling blinging, and you would never have to worry. I'm old fashon and do ---- with barb'd fittings, hose clamps and high pressure line. Not once has it ever failed me.

mine failed me last night. I tightened the clamp too much and it must of cut the line. I've never seen so much smoke in my life. I thought I was on fire. It put about 2 quarts on a hot turbo :P.
