water cooling
 
I just got a saab turbo and i want to hook up the coolent lines but im not sure how its useally done. Do you use the coolent line from the manifold and cut it and put the turbo in line, or do you just t off it and return it somewere else.

I went from head to turbo to TB. LEaks a bit at the turbo, but I'll fix that. After driving, I can stop and touch the compressor with my hand. :y

through an aftermarket or auto radiator ;) NM, that wouldn't pump the water through the rad., it would just set there........... plus watert doesn't flow through there so you'd have lit. put water in there, DAM, that would of made things a lot easier.

Hey man lemme know how you hook yours up and how it goes. I'm planning on running lines to mine also even if it isn't required.
