Ok guys thios is probably a really dumb question but several peopel have suggested I use the nipple on the rear housing to draw coolant for my turbo.

The only nipple i see is right baout the temp guage, is this what your talking about? if so, how does it work, i mean the nipples just sittign there, no coolant flowing if thats the right one.

the one they are referring to is under the intake manifold, you need to remove the intake to get to it.

u take the intake out
get a drill, and drill rotor housing so u get coolant...

You don't have to go that extreme, do you? Can't you just re-route the line coming from that rear nipple (under the intake) to the turbo, then back around to the BAC and all that?

I think this is what everyone is suggesting. Thanks fo rthe clarification all, ill check that out.

There are other ways,,, but this would yield the best result....

use the cold start feed on the rear housing for send, and tap the lower water housing for return

only way to access the water jacket would be drill directly through the water jacket below the intake manifold, not an ideal location since it is right above the exhaust manifold and very little to no clearance, i think slpin was thinking of a turbo intake on an n/a block in which case you can just drill the coolant port on the rear housing to get coolant to flow through the true line going to the turbo from the lower intake. in this case though it is easier to just use SS lines and run from the top coolant port on the rear iron under the upper intake manifold and drill a return port in the lower water pump inlet.

sorry i meant the lower inlet, not on the actual housing, i guess i should have worded that differently

I just ran mine the exact same way they had it routed to the cold start, line from the waterpump nipple -> turbo -> rear iron nipple.

Haven't had any issues.

you could do it that way as well, i just figured gravity would help in the latter case but i'm sure both options work just fine.

True, but it's under pressure, so it shouldn't need all too much help getting it to flow.
