Default Coolant lines for turbo

Thanks

I use a pair of -6 stainless steel lines, and have a bung welded on the bottom of my radiator tank as my feed. Then for the drain I used the nipple that's used for letting out air bubbles from the coolant system. I removed the fitting and tapped it so I could attach my -6 line there.

I have extra lines that I am selling too. I made a thread in the FI forum.

Throttle body and bottom of radiator. You can actually get an adapter fitting so you can use the drain plug.

take the coolant line from the throttle body run it to the turbo - run another line from the turbo to the intake manifold.
