It doesn't look too good, but it will do the job. Why dont you get a 45 degree fitting? That would give it a better pitch and wont cling/bend the line.

I don't like that bend in the line, it might back up the oil and make your turbo smoke

Make sure you have a nice clean cut on the end. Then take some scotch tape and wrap it around the end like 2-3 times, then put the red end into a vise and push the braided line in while rotating it. should slide right on.

45 might do the trick, ill try it. thanks you guys

what about that fitting in the oil pan doesnt it seem to be pointing down... that would mean the oil might not want to travel upwards... yes / no ??

well i think that 45 worked its still kinda tight there even after makeing the ss line shorter to make up for the 45 since its longer. i think i have the worlds smallest oil return. the ss line is like 3in and the 2.5 inch 45 degree fitting.
