I am throwing a dsm t25 in my civic, and my quesion is about cooling...the turbo is oil and water cooled, but many ppl say that as long as oil is running through it really dosnt need to be water cooled also...whats your input? and if i needs water, how would i do this?

 

You're throwing a turbo in your civic? I hope the window's down.

haha just kidding. Seriously though, I would hook up the water lines. If the turbo comes with a water cooled center section, then use it.

Some people say it isn't completely necessary, some say that you will lessen / eliminate the need for a turbo timer if the water lines are hooked up. Seeing as how the time involved and money required to do this is minimal compared to the rest of a turbo setup imo, I say it's the only way to go.

 

so if my turbo comes with a waterline, i dont need to hook up a turbo timer?

damn, i'm learning something new everyday. u just saved me 89 bucks.
