Default Few Questions

Ok, I already have a turbo kit on my car.... BUT

I have recently purchased a bigger Precision BB Turbo. On this turbo it has coolant passages, so i do need to run these? Its not like "I dont wanna" run them, just curious if itll kill the turbo, and should i start planning out how imma run em.

Also which runner is best for a pyrometer gauge?


Thanks for the help guys

you need to run them, the oil lines on those turboes are just to lubricate the ball bearings, not to cool, like on straight oil cooled/lubricated turboes. The BB ones use the oil the lube it and the water to cool it, otherwise it will over heat and lead to premature bearing failure amoung other things...

edit: run the pryometer in the #3 runner, it usually runs the hottest
