I know mtr sells an entire set up but i have a few fittings and lines already, and would like to save some money.
i'm using an ebay mani just to give the general area of the turbo

what i have so far :
some npt 1/4 and npt 1/8 -4 fittings
-4 oil line i have about 2 feet
oil drain flange and 2 ft -10 line

my question is about how much line should i cut or should i get more length,
and also is 1/8 npt for the oil feed to the block. i think i have source for the oil drain, but more insight is welcome.
thanks
i know i messed up the spelling in the title.

it's a 12mm x 1.25 converted to a -6an. then you have to get a -6 to a -4 fitting. 2 feet might be enough. i bought 3 feet of line , which could be a little shorter.
That's what I did too, but I cut the -4 down to like a foot and a half or so.

As for the oil drain, -10 line will work. Just get a turbo drain flange, and a 1/2" NPT to -10 hose end to screw into it.

Oh, and standard turbo oil drain flanges will also bolt right up to the oil pan, so you don't need to worry about making something to fit on there.
