I'm using his hot parts and intercooler setup
T61 Precision turbo(VanillaGorilla's)
Tial 38mm Wastegate
Tial 50mm BOV
This is my first time going to forced induction fellas so the only knowledge I have is from guys like you who have already done it. Thanks for the tip though.
Thanks, but for the most part I'm full of ****,LOL.

I'm actually doing a variation of Kyle's Front mount kit(only cheaper so I can afford it).

Dan, 45's are fine if you use them right... mainly avoid sharp turns let it free flow back to the pan.

Sorry to bump this back up, but I think I may finish up my turbo build.
I have a pretty good idea what all I need, but I want to make sure I'm not forgetting anything. If any of you who has done this if you wouldn't mind looking over my parts list I'd sure appreciate it. I'd just assume order all this stuff tonight.
Feed:
5' -4an braided line
(2)-4an to 1/8npt straight adapter
Turbo feed adapter with gasket
WJ Mark Oil cooler adapter plate
Drain
-10 push lock hose
(2) -10an straight push lock adapters
(1) straight -10an to 1/2 npt adapter
(1) 90* -10an to 1/2 npt adapter
Would you guys recommend doing a 45* instead of the 90* out of the oil pan? I know you guys said the fewer bends the better, but I noticed Charcold-Bowtie's oil pan adapter is a 90* bend
Any extra things I should get while I'm at it?
Thanks fellas

I'll snap a pic of my drain/feed all installed tomorrow for you... I got 3' of -10 hose and it was pretty long... I'd probably go with 2 or 2.5ft next time around.... I've got a 45* swivel on the pan and a straight fitting on the turbo for drain... the feed is a WJ MARK plate, a 1/8NPT-4AN 90* adapter fitting... and I've got a 90* -4 swivel on top of the turbo.... Ive got a manual oil pressure guage up there too, but I'm paranoid LOL
where you put the hole in relation to the low oil level sensor and starter is the biggest issue and usually dictates if you run a 45 or a 90.... mine BARELY touches the starter case but its not enough to hurt, I got away with a 45...
