Sr20det turbo coolant bypass

[Jon FLA]

Cant really find any certain information, but when going topmount and the turbo I got doesnt have coolant running through it, can you just plug the lines on the block? or would you need to get a long enough line to just bypass the turbo? not really sure. pics would be nice too, thanks

c'mon I know it is a noob question but it is my daily driver so I have to know exactly what I need to do cause I gotta drive it to work monday if I start on friday.. I just need a little help, can you just block off the coolant ports at the block? or do you gotta run some sort or hose from the feed to return?

You can get a bung and cap off at the block. The soft line you can shove a bolt into with a hose clamp. Due to coolant cooling the Turbo and making. It last longer and not coke up, since you now don't have that anymore, I'd get a Turbo timer.

ok cool, so yes you can block off the coolant lines at the block.
Turbo timer on anything other than a stock turbo is a must anyways..
Thanks for your help.

Garrett gt turbos don't need Turbo timers
