Default Turbo Return line questions

im having trouble gettitng my return line hooked up on my turbo kit. im using a return line with -10 AN fittings (the fastturbo.com setup). I have a tubular style manifold and an sc61 with the s housing. Due to the size of the comp housing, i cannot turn the fitting that mounts to the turbo a full 180 degrees, so the use of that minimal. i have two 45 degree fittings on the return line right now. one from the fitting that mounts to the turbo and one from the oil pan. It causes a slight kink in the line....not so much that it would completely cut off flow, but enough that you can tell its not straight. So my question is how much of a "kink" is too much to affect the use/performance of the turbo?? Also, is it possible to use a 90 degree fitting off of my turbo? I heard that there could be no flat spots, would a 90 cause a flat spot?

pictures to come sometime soon...

can you put a straight -10 fitting on the turbo and put a 90* 45* 135* hose end on it?
