Hmm... well I did a little research and it looks like the hose is rated for:
Maximum pressure is 125 PSI (8.62 BAR) Maximum temperature is 180°F (82.22 C)
I'm not sure how hot the oil coming out of the turbo gets (just installed the temp gauge, but it's setting above the oil filter), but it sounds like that might be an issue. If so, lesson learned. I imagine oil temps will get around 350-400°F. Guess I'll be looking into those ebay kits after all. I can return the hose, but not the fittings... they were only about $5 total though.
Anyone know anyone who can help me tune this in the Pittsburgh area (Greensburg)?
