what tee do i use for oil passage?
 
What tee do i use to tap into the oil pressure? and what oil lines do i use and where can i get it? I heard someone mention about summit racing? What's the part number?

3-wayT 1/8 NPT and Straight Union 1/8NPT ?

What fitting do i use for the turbo? and where can i get the fittings? ;D

And can these parts be found at auto part stores like NAPA, Kragen, AutoZone???

Well how about a bit more info?

Engine?
Turbo?

Not everyone has a honda here... :-*

If it is a honda, 1/8 NPT is the thread pitch off the back of the block. you can then T into it with a Extension and splitter. Then however you run your oil feed is up to you, if you want to use a barb, or get a -an fitting.

Braided line you mean? -an sized hose? You can get that through summit/jegs or a local race shop.

I would go with a -an 4 hose. The inlet for the oil feed on the t3/t4 is a 1/8 npt fitting as well. So its pretty basic stuff.

you will need (2) 1/8 to -an4 fittings and the 3 way 1/8 splitter and a brass 1/8 extension.

The brass fittings you can get at napa or local hardware stores.

I think you need to re-read my posts dude, I explain what you need for your oil feed, where to get it and how much it costs. I also state which size fitting you need for your turbo.

Oil return is a differnt story, you will need to get a Oil return flange, (drain)

You can get one at
http://www.roadraceengineering.com/f...andgaskets.htm

15 bucks w/ gasket, you will then need to weld a fitting in your oil pan. Then connect the 2 fittings together, with some basic rubber 5/8 hose, and hose clamp it.
