Rb20 Water Lines For Turbo

[joe blo]

hi mates i got a car recently and noticed it has no water lines on the turbo so i wanna put some on it. i think it had a oil only turbo at some stage. the water hole on the block it there with the banjo eye thing in it with the metal line crimped to block it but what i need help with is the other line that is usually behind the motor (does it come from plenum?)

is the one on the block the feed or return and what can i do for the other line? i cant see anything blocked off to reuse so need help.

thanks mates

The one on the turbo side of the block is the supply. The return runs around the back of the motor to under the intake, where there is a large water line out of the block

on the block connection, is it a banjo or does it come off heater hose or something else? been looking on google for about 4 hours to find the original setup mine been taken off coz had a oil only turbo on it at some stage now gotta put water back on.

I simplified the cooling circuit when I changed the intake manifold.

Now the return goes from the turbo directly to the water pump bypass.

On the original circuit the return goes partly to the radiator and partly to the waterpump bypass.
