Default -AN fitting question

I'm trying to run all -AN lines for oiling my turbos, and I'd like to stay with the 1/4" size that the original hard lines that came with the kit. Now I know that this equates to a -4 line, but my turbos have the flared fittings for the feed lines and I cant find an adapter fitting that is a 90 degree elbow to -4 AN size fitting, any body know were I could find two? I've found fittings that are -6 but I still need to talk to my turbo builder to find out if that would work OK or not or if anybody here can tell me, my turbos are JB T25 center sections and exhaust housings with GT2871R wheels and compressor housings... thanks guys, appreciate the help on this one.

can you get a -6 fitting on the housing then do a -6 elbow with a stepdown adapter to a -4??

They literally make every fitting your can ever imagine. Unsure who it was but Summit or Jegs has a new line out with awesome colors etc. I would also run the Nylon filament braided hose well worth the extra few bucks.

www.brennaninc.com then go to product catalog, then click tube fittings/adapters. You probably need a tapered pipe to male an/jic -4 adapter.

I get mine through summit racing. Sasha on here might have some insight in setting them up. Like stated above i think you need a step down sized fitting.

Also, i'm not sure what oiling the garrett turbos need but I'm pretty sure the 4an lines require an oil restrictor. If you use 3an lines instead of 4 an lines you won't need to put an oil restrictor inline.
