Running coolant lines T25 on a KA24DE?

[StryfeS13]

I searched and found a few threads on various forums, but every link is no longer working.

On a KA24DE intake manifold, where the top radiator hose goes, there is that little water line, that i believe goes under the throttle body. I was wondering how I can run that to my turbo? Pretty much I need a fitting that will screw in to the turbo itself that I can run the hose to..

I drew this in paint to hopefully show you guys what I'm trying to say.

Pretty much I need to know where to find a fitting like that, and it needs to be the same size as the nipple on the upper coolant passage is. I think it's 5/16..not too sure.

Nope, those nipples screw into the bango's and are 5/16" O.D. then you use 5/16" I.D. and then you are now able to tap into the two water outlet ports located in the intake manifold, you now have the option of illiminating the coolant feed to the TB if you like. Theres always a method to my madeness

For the easiest connection to the water return and outlet pipe you will simply need to bypass your coolant lines to your throttle body and also use these fitting to tap into your banjo supplied 1/4" NPT tap with these 1/4" NPT to 5/16" straight hose fitting (HARD TO FIND!!!)

I'm pretty sure this will work. Just found this

1/4" Npt X 5/16" Brass Hose Barb (http://www.westmarine.com/1/1/25420--1-4-npt-x-5-16-brass-hose-barb.html)

It's a T25 Journal bearing turbo save the trouble and $$ use that on a turbo timer instead. If you're running a BB turbo then you will definitely need it.

Yeah...

t25, who the fuck cares about water lines?

all they do is cool down the turbo when the car is OFF.

drive like a normal human being for a few minutes after hotlapping, let the car idle for a little, shut off.

done.
