hey guys,
i always hear when coolant lines of a BB turbo connected to the engine cooling system that coolant temps increases like 10*....now i want to make sure i did this right!

i live in a hot area and i removed my heater out of this engine since i never use it and at the same time to have some usable space....now the turbo coolant hoses i have are hooked from a welded bung on the water neck pipe and another hose to a custom fitting i made that used to be my heater return at the VTEC soleniod area

here are some pics:




is there any chance i could overheat with this setup? or am gonna be fine? since expecting increase of ECT when those coolant lines are used, by how much should i expect more in terms of increase?

 

yes that should be fine, basically the same way i run mine.
I cant answer your other questions tho sorry.

 

thanks man!

any more detailed info here?

 

bump regarding the questions i asked!

 

no one can really say if it will/wont overheat because all cars/cooling systems are different...

 

oh well i'll see how it goes then!
