Default Need help with oil feed and return and other turbo stuff

I need help getting some fittings for the oil feed for my t3 t104e journal bearing unit.

I still have the trd s/c tee fitting and oil pan, does anyone know what the fitting on the end of the tee is ? 4 an or 3 an ? I want to try to keep the cost down and reuse the trd t fitting, plus it is a good qaulity fitting t that threads into the block very well ( not like some other t fitting I used before)

for the return I was just going to use a slip adapter for the chra unit to go to the trd tapped oil pan which I think is a 5/8" inlet but am not 100% sure. Would this flow enough ?

Another question

I can't make up my mind being that I am not going with a fmic to start I either getting a Snow Peformance Stage 2 or a AEM Meth injection kit, any thoughts anyone ? I like the safety switch on the snow kit that dumps boost pressure if the flow drops.

got a update turns out 10 an is 5/8" id and 8an is 1/2" id so the 10an oil hose I got did not fit the 1/2" port on the trd pan. So I went out and got 1/2" id Heater hose and a 1/2" npt to 1/2" Barbed fitting and the 1/2" hose fits the trd pan perfect.

Yeah I guess it comes down to price, I can get the aem cheaper, both are progressive with a saftey boost kill switch so I'll go with the aem unit. I'm not sure what mix I should do since I'm not using a fmic, would a 50/50 mix be too aggressive ?

As for the size thing, oh well thats part of doing a custom kit, so who wants to buy 24" of 10 an rubber hose and slip on barb fitting

5 Gallon is nice but where would you mount it ? I was thinking of making a bracket under the battery tray.

Trunk mount might be your only bet.

isn't the AEM only Water Injection? I know the Snow is Meth. I might be confused.
