closed loop T3 cooler
 

I was wondering fi anyone was or is going to run something similar to what Im cooking up. I bought a tranny cooler off a dodge truck from the wrecking yard, and am going to get a small 12V water pump and a 1 gallon tank, and put together my own closed loop turbo cooler. Instead of running engine coolant through the housing, Im going to run this setup. The car will be road raced/ autocrossed, so Im hoping it will help to save the bearings in the turbo.

Comments? Suggestions? Other then to go find a rope.... :P

It will overheat, the turbo produces ALOT of heat, i would just get a nice sized aftermarket radiator for the car and run it like normal.

Alot of guys dont bother hooking water lines up at all, wouldnt something be better then nothing?
