I am putting a Garrett GT28RS a.k.a Disco Potato on my B16 and was wondering where is a good place to tap for water since it is oil and water cooled.

I have a couple of thought, but was wondering if you had any suggestions!! Thanks !!!!!!

bypass the throttle body coolant lines and run them to turbo

Kool, i was considering that. anyone else with other suggestions.

i had a fitting taped to the block drain bolt and one taped to the t-stat housing. its a lot more cleaner that way.

that's a better way.
the best way is from the bottom of the radiator to the t-sata housing.

i will keep it in mind, but I kind of like the throttle body idea

i just run mine in line from the throttle body.
stock there is a coolent line from the throttle body to the intake manifold. i run it from the throttle body to the turbo and from the turbo to the intake manifold

I had an extra water port since the b18c1 block was obdI and had a factory oil cooler I decided not to use. We taped a hole in the bottom of my radiator for the return line.

Mr HYDE

you are sayign to run it from the throttle body. i got a gsr and my coolant line comes from the water inlet port from the rad then to the FICV then a line to the IAC can u bypass that? arent u suppose to run coolant through those?. i also have on my thermo houseing a block off cooling port. can i run one line from the water inlet and bypass the ficv and iac and then run the second line to the extra port ihave ont he thermo houseing?

I took out my heater core, and box and all that great stuff. So i just use the two lines that use to go to my heater core.

The bottom of the rad would be the feed not return.

anyone else have any input !!!!!

Soccerking3000

the front waterjacket drain bolt and t-stat housing IMO is the best and cleanest way to go hands down, dont just do the t/b cause its the easiest...

Come on dude, stop being so dam lazy and search. Its only been covered on every site i know of a thousand times. Its not like you have something that no one has done before.

Why not just get a aluminum radiator for a Automatic Tranny.. they have 2 lines on the bottom for the tranny Cooler.

96 GSR-T

Might be a dumb question, but what is this port right here?

chasemyhonda

that would be the bleeder valve.

96 GSR-T

Can that be tapped? I also have an OBD1 block, I have to look for the spot mentioned above tomorrow.
