I would like to see the routing of water lines from various places you can use on the engine bay to run to the turbo, thanks

I'm also curious. Fedex just dropped off my t3 about 30min ago. WOOT> And it's watercooled, I was thinking of just using the line that runs to the throttle body. any ideas, also, where do i get the fittings that fit into the CHRA for the water cooling passages?

You can see where I cut the colant lines in half, ran one side to the feed and the other side to the return. Making a loop. The lines that I cut are the ones that are put together by the metal pieces that go into the stock intake. You can see both the lines kinda in this picture. They are just above the little breather filter on the valve cover.
on my 14B i took coolant from the TB line, i put a T there...
and from the turbo to a nipple on the tube that is behind the back of the block, right before the water pump so i get that suction power and flow

"I just removed the lines that go to the TB and used the now empty nipples to run the lines to the turbo. You don't need coolant in the TB with a turbo. The turbo preheats the air enough on cold days, even at idle. (That's what the TB line is for, not cooling)
The TB lines are also in parallel with the heater hoses, so there should be no difference in heat between them."
Thats exactly what I did and it works great!
