Default turbo oil line size?? dumb question?

Im finishing up my car and I have to run the oil line around to the pass side. What size line should I use? Too big would rob the rest of the engine and too little would deprive the turbo right? I have to run it about 65" long. there is 1/8 pipe threads I tapped coming out of the engine, and same w/ the turbo.
thanks.

I have a -4 from the engine to the turbo with a .060 restrictor (nitrous jet) inline.It won't starve the engine at all.
