Plug the S5 Turbo Housing with Freeze plug and what sealant ?
i bought the freeze plugs already. and will order the S5 housing (Brand new, lots of brand new parts not just housing) maybe a week later.
Looking to buy some fluid and just remember that I will need some gasket/sealant, so I wonder if I should get Blue RTV or Red RTV ? Red is probably a better choice right ?
oh almost forgot, the Water passage is the only thing I need to plug right?

hmm its 20 something bux ... is it really that good compare to say, the red RTV ?
and if I use Turbo housing, I dont need to buy any special gasket/o-rings right? cuz im using it for NA, and after like 20 minutes of research its the same except for that water passage/jacket only ?
