Hey guys im installing my greddy TD05H 18g turbo into my s13 redtop and iv run into a bit of a problem.
On the stock t25 there are 4 holes in the turbo (oil feed, oil return, coolant feed, coolant return??) but on my new turbo it only has 2 holes for the oil feed and return...
Im wondering if im supposed to run coolant through the turbo still? or am i supposed to plug up the coolant lines or connect them to keep it circulating?

Any help is greatly appreciated!!

If the turbo doesn't have fittings for coolant, then you can't run coolant through it. You can cap off the coolant lines as they aren't integral to the flow of coolant. The turbo runs in parallel, not series.
