aftermarket oil/coolant feed/drain lines for stock turbo
I'm really wanting to upgrade these lines just for reliability purposes. Does anyone have a write up or parts list to do this?

and the lower coolant hose that attaches to the water pump housing...

There is nothing aftermarket that can beat it.
Even SS AN hose is not as reliable as hard pipes.

The search results are really screwed up for some reason, so I can't find any of the past topics covering this.
ATP turbo sells a T4 drain flange with a 1/2" NPT port on it which you can use to connect to a 1/2" to -10 adapter to build a braided stainless oil drain. When using the S4 turbo, there does not appear to be enough space to use this but it works for S5.
For oil feed, ATP also sells an appropriate feed flange with a 1/8" port on it. Then use an adapter to go to -4 AN. The feed on the front iron is a standard metric thread (see the thread pitch topic in the Archives) for which you can get an adapter to -4.
