When I did mine and from what I have gathered from the other posts it should be as straight as you can get it. But sometimes it not possible I had to put a 90 in or my hose or it wound kink.

Anyone know what type of hose is used for the oil return line? Looks like a rubber hose with cloth wrapped around it can't find it at auto parts stores. The piece that came with the kit is to short.

I used some high temperature Parker hose, which you can get online or at a hydraulic shop. Heater hose will melt.

I have a good amount of the install done. waiting on a oil adaptor plate from trick should be here monday then i can get the feed line hooked up. Need to track down oil return line on Monday as well. Other then that I need to change springs in WG , hook up vac lines, install wide band, dash logic, build exhaust system, install fuel injectors, finish heater hoses, extend ground, clock turbo,extend wires for MAF, and thats all i can think of at the moment. Lots to do glad i did not have to do it all in a weekend would have been long days.

the text I sent. It's -10 push loc.

Oreillys they offer a oil compatible hose.
Looks different but will work.
Needs to be 5/8.
Install some thermal sleeve near the turbo area.

Don't not extend those wires. No need.
Just un-loom them from the stock loom.
Once you get to the backside of the engine.
Then just route them to the new location.
I would re-loom these wires for a factory look and keep them safe.

On my turbo the oil flange was 1/2" npt thread, so I used a 4" piece of pipe to extend it down then attached the hose to that. Worked in giving the oil a straight tube for the first bit and kept the hose away from the hotest part.
