I recently purchased and installed a ss 16g oil feed line I bought off ebay. The one i got was made by authentic boosting.
1g 2G DSM Eclipse 4G63T Stainless Turbo Oil Feed Line TD05H 16g 20g to Head | eBay
CUSTOMER SERVICE/ SHIPPING
The price seemed fair and to be honest ive been wanting to test an authentic boosting item for some time now. so the package arives 4 days after ordering it, i open it up and they sent me a rubber hose and some clamps "not what i ordered". so at first im very upset untill i realized they also sent me in invoice that had a phone number on it with a CA zip code. so i call up and explain that they have sent me the wrong part and the girl was so nice, she tells me she is very sory and she will send the correct part urgently with a prepaid shipping package so i can send the old one back. 2 days later my new line arrives "corect this time with the prepaid package to send the wrong part back". so for customer service i give a 10/10, it was the best experience ive had returning/ exchanging parts on ebay.
THE LINE
ok so as for the line, it was a very nice standard SS oil feed line with the bango fittings as AN fittings that screw into the line. nothing about the line/ fittings/ bolts or washers was chinsy, everything seems to be quality stuff so quality i give a 10/10.
THE INSTALL
ok so i install the turbo side first, everything is going as planed. the bolt screws right into the turbo with no problem. now i install the head side of the line, again i used there bolt but when i tightened it down it kept moving. long storry short there bolt for the head was not the same thread pitch as the factory bolt so not only did it strip out but it pulled the threads right out of the head. so for anyone who uses this line, MAKE SURE YOU USE YOUR FACTORY BOLT FOR THE HEAD! i ended up using a bango fitting off another line that gos on the turbo side. as we all know the turbo bolt is bigger then the head bolt. so i drilled out the head, tapped the larger threads in and used a small screw driver with greese on it to get the shavings out of the head. but now the line is on with no leaks, looks nice and works perfect.
OVERALL OPINION
even though i had an issue with the head bolt i would still recomend this line, just use your factory bolts. the line is cheap and the quality is good. the company also seems to be alot better then your standard ebay company, its nice to be able to call them and speak with someone who speaks english and wants to help you. i hope someone finds this article useful!
