Tony, Dustin, Gene, Sniper, Sov, anyone have any answers for these questiosn?

For my oil line kit: http://www.stealthmodeperformance.com/oil-uni.shtml

Says theres a "Universal T25" kit, will that work? And how about the price?

What it says about the oil line kit: T25 kit uses a 7/16 thread size for the oil inlet. The drain flange from center to center mounting bolts measures 44mm.

So will the 7/16 thread inlet work with.....this oil sandwich adapter i plan on using for my oil feed: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/OIL-FILTER-SANDWICH-ADAPTER-HONDA-CIVIC-ACCORD-S2000_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ46100QQihZ015QQitemZ250127369282QQrdZ1

I realize its generic, so if you guys think it'll fail let me know. And it'd also be helpful if you would recommend a better one.

And i remember a while back i reocmmended somebody against an Ebay Intercooler, but Sniper came on an corrected me, saying that the ebay FMIC's would do the job just fine. So with that, i was looking and came across: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/FMIC-INTERCOOLER-INTEGRA-CIVIC-BMWE36-E30-323-325-328_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33742QQihZ009QQitemZ190122511626QQrdZ1

I called this business i found on HomeMadeTurbo.com and they recommended for EK's a size very similar to that one's ^ (Core Size 21"x5.5"X2.5", Overall Size 28"x5.5"x2.5") Size and quality look okay? Or do you think its too big, or the quality might fail me somehow?

Oh and btw i got my T25 in the mail, damn this thing is ALOT heavier than i thoguht lol Anyway, there a nipple coming out of the compressor housing and a nipple on the wastegate, so i just connect a vacuum tube between these two lines?

There are also 4 nipples on the area between the compressor/exhaust housings. I was talking to Gene and he said there is an oil inlet/outlet and a coolant line intlet/outlet. Sound correct? I'll take pictures when i stop being lazy to explain better, and maybe you guys could also direct me as to which lines are which. So for these, i use the sandwich adapter for my inlet, tap into my oil pan and run a line to that for my outlet, and then i was talking to Gene and he also said that i use the coolant line off the TB for the intlet/outlets of the turbo. Again, is this correct?

Thanks so much you guys, i wouldnt even be able to consider htis project with ya
