Default turbo coolent feed and return

hi there,
Ive got a JDM Civic EG9 running B16A2 engine and i wana turbo it, Im will be running a TD05H turbo and just wondering if anybody can help me by locating a feed and return line for coolent for the turbo core.
How good will this turbo run on a B16A2 will it be laggy and when will it be on full boost.
All replies would be appreciated.

I know were to connect the coolent lines on the turbo,but I mean from wat source can I get the coolent to feed the turbo core, and what source to suck the coolent from the core.
Hope this clarifies the question.

thanks
Steven

You probably wont have any lag and the coolant ports are on oppisite sides of the turbo.

run it in series with your throttle body/IACV heater line, or tee off your heater core line and run it parallel.

since most people like to bypass the water lines that run through the throttle body,the ones that heat up your throttle body,i use those lines,just pull both of them off and get some adaptors to extend the hoses to the turbo.

I agree, run off Tees to your heater core in and out lines. parallel your turbo to your heater core. that way no idling problems with involving your TB.

I suggest getting Earles/Aeroquip fittings to make a right angle hose barb fitting off your turbo inlet and outlet and run either stainless braided lines or get Aeroquip socketless hose and firejacket (thats what I'm doing). I used regular heater hose on straight fittings and had a slight kink and the heat made my line blow and lost all my coolant and overheated my car! Gonna do it better 2nd time around if I ever get my backordered hose.

If you got a wet housing turbo use it, your turbo will last longer!
