THE KIT CAME WITH A RUBBER LINE WITH BLACK BRAIDING AROUND IT .
SHOULD BE FINE . THATS FOR THE REPS GUYS . STILL TRYING TO WORK WITH THIS TURBO KIT . JUST GOT MY A -PILLAR GAUGES IN AND PROGRAMMED THE CONTROL UNIT. JUST HAVE TO CUT SOME OF MY RADIATOR SUPPORT TO HAVE CLEARANCES FOR THE CHARGE PIPES AND FIX THE SAME OIL LEAK I HAVE HAD FROM DAY #1. THE OIL LINE FROM THE OIL SENDING UNIT TO THE TURBO. THE CONNECTION TO THE TURBO HAS BEEN LEAKING TRIED TWO NEW WASHERS, STILL LEAKS ADDED A THIRD WASHER LEAKS MORE. IF ANY ONE HAS ANY IDEAS ,PLEASE LET ME KNOW ,I HAVE HAD THIS TURBO OUT 10 TIMES TO MAKE ADJUSTMENTS. .
