Default turbo oil feed?

Just curious as to how you guys are setting up your oil feed. I have a s475 and was going to run a 6 feed and 10 return. I know that you can get it from the oil pressure port on the back of the block or where the oil cooler block off plate is but I'd rather get it from where the oil pressure port is and was curious as to what fittings will work?

6an is overkill. Just use a 4an (1/4") feed like Borg Warner recommends. The "oil cooler" port is the best place IMO as it has a fresh supply of freshly filtered oil.

oscs is correct. No more than -4 feed line.
