Working on getting the turbo on the engine before we get it in the car and have a question about the line hook ups.

In the photo is the circled tube for the coolant return? If not, what is? Thanks

Yes, that is coolant return. That's funny though because mine was a hardline around the back of the motor.

excellent, thanks! It seems all of the hard lines were removed and replaced with braided line/hoses on the aftermarket turbo.

Yea mine's a hard line also.

Does anyone have a diagram of the stock coolant system? I tried the FSM but no luck.

hers a pic of the hoses under the intake manifold



where the blue meets the red and the yellow meet the green, there T's, the green and red go to the fire wall, and theres also a coolant line from the turbo that ties into the green hose

hope this helps

Yea thanks. Does the red hose go to the bottom or upper heater core? Or does it not matter. I had my motor out for a while so I don't remember atm.
