Just get an oil line kit that includes both the return line/fittings and the feed line/fittings.

If you know what fittings you need, atpturbo.com is a great place to get them.

If you don't know what fittings you need and just want a kit, tunertoys.com is a great place to get them.

Back of the motor, just to the left of the oil filter is the stock oil sending unit that's threaded into the motor. Just unscrew it, run a line from that hole to your firewall and 'T' it off there to run your OEM sending unit and your feed line to your turbo. Simple.

Or a sandwich adapter like Greddy or Golden Eagle.
