Coolant lines for BB turbos

[EvilTwins]

Hey guys, just looking for some pictures or even desriptions of how people tie into the coolant system for their ball-bearing turbos. The more I think about getting new turbos the more I start to lean towards GT35R's.

Also can anyone tell me if my current Function 7 oil restrictors (made for T3/T4) would flow way too much oil for ball bearing turbos, and would they even bolt up? They have 1.6mm orifices and if it matters I'll also be running a Melling oil pump.

you can have a couple of fittings welded to your coolant tube and then just have the tube powdercoated again and that can be your feed/return for the coolant.

not sure on the restrictors.

Really? Returning it to the same place is fine? I would have thought that it would be good idea to route the heated coolant back to the inlet of the radiator, but that isn't necessary?

sorry, yes, pretty sure you are right, I didn't spell that out. sorry man.

get the two couplers like the one for the coolant mod uses and route one from the lower radiator hose as a feed and another one to ur upper as return. paint them black for a flawless look
