Turbo Cooling Lines
#3
Thanks for the read.

I like the comment about coolant affecting the spool up? What the hell is that guy talking about?

The coolant lines on a turbo are only there to keep the oil from coking after shut down. The turbo needs to be located below the water line of the engine so that after shut down, the heat of the turbo will boil the water and pull fresh water in. The return line is very important for this fact, as you don't want to have any air trapped in the return line, as this pocket would cause the turbo to not be able to pull in fresh water and then the resulting coking would begin. That is why I wanted to know where others have plumbed the lines and the results.

Any one else have info or found something in your searches?
