SS braided turbo oil water lines question...

I just got this kit from ebay:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Turbo...item2311f2969d

I´ve installed the oil line and it works fine, my question is if the 4AN braided lines are safe for turbo water lines, as they have an inside diameter that is less than half or maybe a third of what the stock water lines ID is.

I´ve read that the most important cooling for the turbo is the oil line, and that the water lines are a secondary aid, but I´m hesitant in installing these much smaller water lines.

Cheers,

Ricardo

Did you end up running the braided water lines? I've been thinking about getting something similar made.

Just the top one until I got a replacement hard line, but 4AN is too small next to the stock lines, now they do offer a 6AN SS braided line that I´m going to try.
