  • Turbo coolant help!

    Almost forgot to ask. As of right now I have only 1 coolant line to the turbo. I had to remove the stock line at the block! So I need another feed location.

    I have the line on the crossover pipe and that it. Which line should I tap into?

    Can I use another line off the crossover pipe. Just run a tee back to the turbo intake?

    You need high pressure spot and a low pressure spot. Crossover and radiator top. Pre throttle body warmer and crossover.

      Thermostat bypass port and coolant return to water pump.

          Yes. If by crossover you mean the heater core return pipe. Then yes. Low pressure is running back to the water pump, high pressure is running away from it

            So could i tap into the line going to the heater core? Use it as my high pressure line? Or is it not enough still yet

              Yes. Depending on the car, heater cores don't always flow coolant, but the hot side should always have pressure

                The side that runs to the hard cross over pipe is the low pressure side right? Ill get it all fixed up tomorrow i guess. Thanks!

                  The turbo is going to be a restriction, but if you ran it in series on the hot side pipe you could have some wicked warm heaters in the winter.

                    I made a in dash heater core. i put a t in the in and out of the heater core. Ran a computer fan behind my heater core. Boom instant heat. My car gets nice and comfortable in the dead of winter now.
