Default GTSeries Turbo and Water Lines on a GSR motor...?

im lookin at getting setup with a gt30R or 35R to make me happy!

Id like to get some opinions on how to go about running coolant lines to and from the turbo in the cleanest way possible.

Where/which hose would you get the coolant from?
Where/which hose would you have the coolant return?
Any other pertinent info you'd like to add?


This is on a EG hatch with a GSR swap ive only had for a week
Thanks in advance.

This may not be the response you were looking for but I was under the impression that the Garrett GT series were just cooled with the engine oil used to lubricate them and that there were no coolant lines. Are you getting a custom variant or am I just plain wrong?

any of the "R" models (ie. GT30R - GT35R - GT28R) will need coolant lines because these have a dual ball bearing center cartridge that needs external cooling from what i understand.

thx for the reply though!

you dont NEED the lines but it certainley helps with the life of the turbo.
just get it off the throttle body!
