Title pretty much says it all. They are probably -6 or -8, but I want to be sure. Also, the reason I am not going with the kit is that I don't like the way they run because it is very difficult to remove them with the head on the car. I figure this way I can make it to where it is pretty easy to pull off the car with the head on.

I found an old fitting from one of the vendors kits that I had back when, and it would appear that it is -6.

The TU kit is -6 feed and -8 or -10 return.

Thanks for that info. I just did a test fitting in the garage, and it looks like -6 will work quite well for what I am wanting it to do, and it keeps the parts interchange factor in my favor. I will probably just run -6 to and from.

You might want to stay with a bigger return than feed. Why? I dunno.. thats just what everybody does. lol

Yeah, I thought about it when I read your post, but I don't know that there would be enough pressure built up to where a differential caused by the two sizes would be worth it. but who knows.

That is pretty much how I was going to do it. I am not sure which side of the turbo I will make the feed yet though. I think it will all depend on which side will be the easiest to remove each line with the head on the car. Thanks for the pic.

this way just reach in from the wheel well on the pass side and no problem.
