im sorry...i had to buy 5/8s to fit over the factory hardlines....so its one size under 5/8 so i guess im wanting to run 5/8....my bad
and i looked into the wally 255 pump and they are suppose to be good for up to 600hp.....
so do i need a #8 or a #6
while were on it someone said to redo my turbo oil lines with braided line while i was in the proccess of everything and that it would help a lot...is this true and if so what size should i run for that?

A #8 feed and a #6 return is good for a fairly kick ass Fox Mustang so I wouldn't go any bigger than that for your Mitsu. For the turbo oil lines, I have a #4 but have had to put in a .070 restrictor to keep from blowing oil past the seals. A #3 braided line would probably work nicely. For the return line though, I have 5/8 rubber or #10 braided. The oil coming out of the turbo is really frothy and doesn't like to flow very well so you need a big line with no kinks in it and that doesn't go back uphill anywhere along the route.
