Default Stupid Turbo Install QUestion?

THis is my 1st turbo kit and i bought a drag turbo kit used...i was wondering on the turbo there are three holes, 1 for oil feed line, 2 for oil return line, and 3 i have no idea!!! What is that one for...is that one for coolant? Need help please...also i have the inline fuel pump that comes with the kit and it looks like i need a banjo bolt where the fuel line would be connected to the fuel rail...where would i get this part?

Are you talking about the threaded "hole" in the compressor housing?

yes it is threaded on the compressor housing! is it better to hook up the wastegate to the compressor housing or to the intake manifold that leads to the brake booster?

Yeah, be careful where you get advice. Nothing like pumping your charge pipes full of coolant

You can connect the wastegate to either the compressor housing or at the manifold/booster.

i heard turbo response is not so good when u connect it to the compressor, and i heard turbo response is better at the intake manifold /booster, but will spike more than it would on the compressor...is this true?
