So ive been having this oil leak at the connection in the middle of the stock turbo oil feed line for a while now. How matter how tight i tightened it, it would still leak. so i ordered these parts for ss line upgrade. i know people have done this before, but here is what i did.. these are pretty common parts, but here is where i got them
