1/8 BSP or NPT (they are virtually identical anyway) and 3/8 UNF for the turbo end. 5mm hose should be fine.

EDIT: Are you sure Joe?

Which one? the one with the right thread or the one with the wrong thread on it? I'm certain it's 1/8.

I have a braided t3 feed in the garage i bought off simon, ill go measure it for you. I know it has one banjo 90 degrees out to the other one down the length. So if you laid it flat on the table, one banjo would be horizonal, and the other vertical.
Unfortunately i have no idea of the thread size though but ill have a rough measure of the outers of the thread for you.

The hose is 25.5" long tip to tip.
The thread on the bolt in probably a gnats cock over 9mm wide if that helps anyone out. Thats the one that threads into the turbo. 3/8 in imperial.
