Turbo Braided oil line Q

I've found a company that can supply me with a full set of braided oil feed and return lines including flanges and connections etc. One of the hoses is 36" long, and to me this seemed a bit long but can anyone confirm if this seems to be the right length for our turbo oil lines :?:
Cheers

sorry mate i spelt it wrong, its pirtek http://www.pirtek.co.uk (i should've known i worked there for 2 1/2yrs :? )

they make up hydraulic hoses and stuff, they have got a depot in ipswich.

take your old hose down there tell them what its for and tell them you want it braided and length and they will make it there and then. i bet it will be a hellva lot cheaper aswell.

no jimmy as your aware i dont give a to ss who buys them but it is a well known fact that pirtek made one from copper brake pipe and it failed and caught lite to engine
i have sold well over 200 sets of these without a known failure
and if you stop being a tight ar5e you car would be on the road now

i havent got a pic of one mike, but i recon it would be a PTFE tube with stainless steel braid with the apropiate banjo's etc.

i havent seen the tubo oil feed pipe yet, but the above hose would do it as long as it didnt go through sharp 90 degree bends.
