Turbo and wastegate cooling for dummies. I think Greg posted this video just for me haha lol. I recently emailed Greg asking him how to hook up this very thing. Thank you Greg😉👍.....
Nice video, but i have a quistion. If i have a AN6 on the block, and make a T or Y from that to turbo (an6) and WG (an4) will the water not take the easy way? and that will be the Turbo line, as WG is 1/2 the bore size, and not send mutch water to the WG? :) Hope somebody with more knowhow can tell me :)
Great job Greg! I recently bought the coolant block plug and just as you mentioned, I have no room to connect the coolant line 😕 tried to reclock the cold side of turbo, and doesn't want to spin, still don't think I'll have enough room
Turbo placement in some apps may block the coolant port , or cut down on room right in front of the port. There is a tight radius -6 90 available that may work in some tight clearance apps.
Wanted to clarify something, the water pipe isn't supposed to be a feed right? Since the direction of flow inside the water pipe is going from thermostat housing into the water pump? So it's basically sucking water if you have fittings there. Unless I've missed something
Hi Greg, if you happen to see this - What are you using to tee into the water lines so the wastegate and turbo can share the same feeds? Just a 6AN tee or something?
My English is not very good and the translation is not understandable, would someone explain to me what the water inlet of the turbo should be and what the outlet should be, I understood that the turbo continues to absorb water in some way if it is hot, does it have some physical explanation?
Little confused, what is the correct order of the water feed.. I do have the front water port adapter for my B16, radiator also does have a welded bung.. Does it go from block to INLET on turbo.. or is it block to OUTLET on turbo?
I came up on a ebay GEN 2 GTX30 GTX3076R Dual Ceramic Ball Bearing Turbo T3 and it has the two coolant ports but i don't know the size of the coolant ports im about to just say fuck and order your -6 kit and just get the fittings later if yours don't fit you think I would be ok to remove the fan switch on the thermostat housing and use that as a feed port I think I can control fans using hondata and use you block plug as drain
Our water kit as standard comes with 14mm port adapters; which is what is used in all small/mid frame Garrett turbos. I do not completely understand what you are trying to ask in the 2nd half of the question; but you want to keep your fan switch.
@@GOAUTOWORKSUA-cam can control fans on and off with handata at a set temp so was thinking to remove fan switch and try to use that port for coolant line to turbo since I don't have access to a welder
Coolent lines not needed for snails and wastegate even my d ball bearing garret i run just oil no coolant no problem.. then again it is just a track car but i can show i make over 800hp with no water lines running and turbo still running fine aswell as gate still opening up
Hello, understand the purpose of the water cooling of the CHRA and what happens to steel ball bearings and oil over time (especially with hot shut offs) and you will understand why coolant lines are in fact needed to have a proper lifespan for that particular turbo. Horsepower numbers do not matter here.

Been messaging you for the past week or so just ordered the street kit with a garret gt2560 I’m pumped
Sounds good, thank you.
Great detailed explanation of turbo and wastegate cooling
Much enjoyed keep sharing videos. These types of ideas help save fuel ⛽️ at the pump.
Dope Intro and outro Informative for real.
Thank you!

This is perfect!!! Thank you
Thanks for watching. Be sure to subscribe/share. If there’s something else you’d like to see then be sure to post it up
I just added coolant lines and I feel like it actually spools better
quite possible
This is awesome. Extremely helpful for the time when the piggy bank is ready for me to hit you up!
thank you, let me know how I can assist

thank you for sharing this information Greg!!!
thank you
So I can tap the bottom or the front (facing engine) side of the radiator and just add a male -6an fitting and add a line there as the return line?

thanks, yes, a -6 tee
Water line to turbo first or wastegate?
So can I leave out the water plug on the turbosmart like you said we could with the tile …
It doesn't matter which is first in that circuit. If not running water through the gate then yes, leave the ports open to allow air to circulate.
Whats the thread pitch and size for that B series coolant/bleeder screw?
Great video Greg keep up the good work!
thank you

Gan you do a video on a gt35 t3 turbo set up? Its going on my d17a2 an im confused on where to hook things up on the turbo its self..
we'll have another tech vid up soon
Hello i bought a turbo kit but the water cooler is heating up can i know what may be the reason?
That precision 5830 comes with oil restrictor? It even needs one?
what was the name of that heat sleeve you used?
I need to know where to tap the engine on a chery 3 cylinder. Please help if you have the time
I would look at the oil pressure sending unit port
Do I need to use this on a dual ball bearing ?
Yes, on a water cooled BB turbo you will want to run water lines
Thank you!
would you not want the flow of the water to be at the top going to bottom otherwise you dont have a gravity feed when the car is turned off.
Garett has an article about it. Temperature siphoning. It is very counter intuitive compared to oil lines. But results speaks for itself
