i think if u go to the taka website they have the kits depending on the turbo so u dont need to know the fitting.

Yea I have taka lines but one of the oil lines cant get in how it would normally be if set up like it was stock. So I need to put a 45 instead of a straight fitting and the clearance issue will be no more. I just cant see any markings that show the size on the fitting.

I really haven't seen any outside markings on the AN fittings that say its size. Earls/Summit/Aeroequip usually just put their logo on.
Google the turbo for sizes of fittings, you might find what you need.

Harp,
I didnt realize you guys were on ziliva! Im gunna PM you some pictures and show you my clearance issues. It looks quite obvious that a 45 would do the job but id love your opinion on the matter.
Thanks!

After seeing the pictures and discussing the issue with Wahl it appears that coolant line is slightly too short. The SSauto style tubular manifold and GT2871R .86 might have made the lines which were orginally set up to be used with stock manifold too short for that particular line. Usually there is some slack in the line to compensate but clearly in your case you are just a hair off. Send me back the line and I'll send another line out to you asap.

Harp at Taka took care of everything, we are in the process of exchanging the lines to fit correctly. Ive been getting emails quickly and at times I definatly didnt expect to be recieving them. Seems to be one of those chance problems and is by far no way Takas fault.
