I do, I run water from bottom hose, through turbo and then back into heater output on head, althought I dont think this is ideal On 15th May, 2009 TurboDave said:

The water pump draws cold water from the bottom of the radiator, into the block, then through the head and back into the radiator.

I couldn't say to be honest mate, as I've never run with a t3 which has been setup correctly On 15th May, 2009 TurboDave said:

Anyone knows where it is best to plumb in the turbo? anyone got any ideas? how is it when you plumb it in on the bottom hose? (where the heater normally is) does this mean that the water goes from the head trough the turbo into the bottom hose, and then get sucked trough the waterpump? |
