Default Steel braded oil lines
Ive seen many custom turbo kits on the net and some people use a standard rubber hose, and some use the nice looking steel braded lines for the oil. I'm trying to go for a nice looking kit on my car so I figured I would go for the steel braded lines, but i'm not sure what diameter/size to go with. If anyone has a summit in front of them and happens to know (or a website), please post your knowledge.

Also, the flange that goes onto the turbo itself, where might i find one that adapts to metal braded lines?

is -3AN bigger or smaller than the recommended -4AN ?

I was just gonna use a hard brake line. Someone here mentioned it and it looks like it works.

As far as the flange that bolts to the turbo goes? (one that allows you to hook a steel braided line to)
