what kinda heat can ss braided lines take?
I am wondering what kinda heat they can take because my line from the turbo to oil pan is close to the downpipe and it's touching my charge pipe right from the turbo.

thanks for the reassurance. I think it should be fine too, I mean as hard as that poo poo is to cut I doubt it will burn up. Plus my exhaust is stainless steel, it's fine, why wouldn't stainless steel braided line be too much different.

The inside of the steel-braided line is tephlon. I had mine mounted too close to my wastegate and over a 3 month period of exhaust gases blowing on it, I sprung a leak. I think you should be alright with it on the downpipe, though.
