All you with a b16 turbo
I need to know the amount of oil return line to order. I know it is somewhere between 3 and 4 ft, but I want to get it exact within a couple of inches. Can someone tell me? Thanks - Matt....and the best place to order it. I was thinking Summit because they seem to have good prices. Any others?

That is what I want to do. IS there much slack in the line. I want to get it fairly tight. Also, how did you get the fittings on the hose? Did you use a press? I dont want mine to leak.

return line?? I'm using about a foot and a half.
and I pushed the fittings on by hand, no leaks, but it was hella hard.

Re: All you with a b16 turbo (EvilDragII)
Get more than a foot, i highly suggest 1 3/4 ft to 2 ft. my local shop told me that one foot was fine, but it did not fit and i was pissed, because it was on a weekend and i could not go anywhere to get more.

4 ft is safe to say. Cant really tellyou down to the inch. It all depends on how you run it from the back of the block to the turbo.

Re: All you with a b16 turbo (SlowB16)
Damn, didn't even see that you wrote return line, I assumed you meant feed. Lucky guess, huh? Anyways, I just got compression fittings, no need for a press -as you tighten the fitting with a wrench, the fitting is tightened on the line-absolutely NO leaks, so far... I got exactly 4ft and ran mine from the sender to the turbo zip tied to the prw steering line- perfect fit. Here's a pic:
