So the turbo is going in this weekend and I'm thinking I'm not going to be getting my stealthmode kit on time as i won't be able to order till tommorow morning. Anyhow, what I'm wondering is what I'm going to need to hook this up until i get my kit. Thanks!

hook what up, a jerry rigged oil line?? im not sure if it matters but what turbo is it? the thread might be different than another turbo. mine is a 1/8 thread, if i were going to jerry rig an oil line for a short while ( i wouldnt do it EVER, but thats just me ) i would get a 1/8 thread nipple from home depot. get some high pressure/temp hose, nothing to large, id say use like a high pressure fuel line or something for the time being, and clamp the hose down to the nipple so it doesnt pop off AT ALL. i also believe the T you will have to tap into the block is a 1/8 thread as well. if i were you i would just wait untill the oil line kit comes. if an oil line pops off your not going to be a happy person. its worth the wait. hope i was of some help.

Thanks for the reply! But, lets say I'm NOT jerry rigging it, and I was looking for a more permanent solution, what would you recommend?

just looking for an alternative.. like a list of parts that someone might need to get it all to work perhaps, or suggestions on what to use to leach oil for the turbo?
