how many of you
how many of you with the thunderturd 60/63's run the coolant lines to it because they are in kind of fucked up spots on the center section. i ran them on my thunderbird ihi because they are straight up and down from each other but the garrett ones are spaced like 2" apart because the put the drain in between them.

You don't need to run them if you're not hitting high boost levels then shutting your car right off.

Don't waste your time.
I run the same turbo that was on an auto T-bird with no coolant lines. It's just an extra safeguard from the factory to help cool the turbo down from dumbasses that have no idea that boosting hard before you turn the car off can cause the oil to coke and cause damage to the turbo.
Just use common sense and you don't have to worry.
