Hey guys... a while back i remembered seeing a thread here in the b5 s4 section that had a link to a website that sold upgraded b5 s4 steel braided lines... I just searched all 7 pages of threads containing the word "oiL" and i still didnt find it... i thought i saved the link to my favorites but its not here anymore... so if anyone knows any place that sells upgraded oil lines please link me to the site

thanks

Steel braided lines are for the brake lines. Your talking about the ugraded oil feed lines for the turbos right? ECStuning.com has them. In my opinion you dont need them, its never been proven that the smaller lines caused turbo failers

Agreed. It was more about the routing of the turbo feed lines, running so close to the exhaust manifold. If your engine is out, you can sleeve the stock line(s) for heat protection. Induktion sells the longer lines also.

You don't need them. Just clean out the old turbo oil lines.

Thanks for the replys guys, I was going to originally fire sleeve the original oil feed lines but routing it away from the manifolds seems like the better option, for me atleast..
Induktion motorsports lines were the ones i was looking for.. thanks mholme!

end thread!

I have been running the induction lines for 5000plus miles with zero issues.

just be sure to tighten the lines into the turbos and then tighten the lines themselves (its clear when you see them). All the issues I have seen with these lines leaking have had to do with install errors.
