well if it was meant for fuel pressure line, it'll be okay, since the engine has less pressure on oil than fuel...
I dunno exactly what kind of line they used though, I only used a teflon coated lines fro oil line and speed flex for fuel line. just IMO

3/16" - 1/4" or an-3 to an-4 is what most people use. I've heard some people complain on HT that an-4 was too large and caused oil to get past the seals. Other people use it with no problems tho.

I would highly suggest not using a -4 line since it pumps to much oil into the turbo and ruins the seals and it will eventually blow smoke. The -3 puts the right amount of oil if you feed it off of the block. I have seen alot of people ruin their seals. I guess it depends on the type of turbo you have but any turbonetics or garrett turbos this applies.

Most say -3 but then again most people with a kit probably don't have a clue
