Making braided lines
 
I've got around 2 meters of braided line laying around and I was thinking of making up some braided lines for my turbo, where would the best place to get the appropriate fitting from?

It depends what kind of braided line it is as aeroquip braided lines is different to other types. Demon Tweeks do supply alot of fittings in there motorsport catalogue. Alsocompanies such as hydro-quip or pirtec are worth a look

When I fitted the overbraid (onto my existing pipes on the s12), I used the fittings from Demon Tweeks. They supply an anodised fitting that just slips over your hose clamps or whatever end fitting you have. They don`t look quite as good as genuine braided lines, but you can do all your water hoses, oil lines etc for a lot less. The overbraid can be bought on a roll of different diameters. Gives the engine bay a bit of bling ;) .
Regards,
Ian.

Hydro-Quip come into work so I'll have a word with one of them as it's them who gave me the braided hose anyway for a completely different job to start with.
