Default Upgrading turbo oil lines?

I know the 2000's have different oil lines from the 2001.5 and up and they should be replaced to have better flow. ECSTUNING has them (I believe) but I'm not sure what ones to get and if they are the newer, better ones. Also what kind of labor time am I looking at for this type of job? Thanks guys. Also I did search but really had a hard time finding the answer.

I had it done when I did my KO4s - but I can't recall how much it cost. I think its a good idea to do considering the inadequacy and problems folks have had with the original ones.

Well I'm thinking it will help save the turbos for a little while. I don't even have the car yet but it is a 2000 and I just want to get all the maintenance done on it right when I get it so shes ready to go. If I have the mechanic do it I want to know how much to expect.

It's not really important unless your lines are clogged.

Really save the $$ & wait till you NEED K04's then you can either clean out your lines, or get the newer one, but don't put to much into it.

Alright thanks a lot. I guess I was making it a bigger issue than it needed to be.

Yea 2nd that, it would be a waste to do it now if your not gonna got K04 yet cause your already going to be in there and will be working right with the turbos.
