Water lines for for CPC manifold

Hi all, 

 

ive got a new CPC manifold and want a hand with plumbing up everything - so it all still works as per factory. 

Well the oil cooler (the one on the oil filter)

best way to get water over to the other side for the turbo. 

Where to run the lines for the heater hose etc. 

 

theres a fair bit bit to be put back and as the old mani is not going back on, I'm chasing people's experiences with after market manifolds and how they plumbed them up. 

Also does anyone know the best way to utilize this port on the side of the where the thermostat bolts (pic attached)

Turbo water comes out of the turbo side of the block.

Is there a reason you're keeping the water to oil heat exchanger?

I mean you've gone all out on a plenum so I'm assuming it's a serious car, but you don't have an air to oil cooler?

 

Also need more images. I assume that the bit in your hand is the return? And there's ports on the plenum to plumb to it for a return?

Did the engine have the heat exchanger on it when you took it apart? Because that fitting in the rear of the block isn't the one for having an oil heat exchanger... it should have a Y pipe for the feed, big one goes to cabin. The hole in the side of the thermostat housing is the return for the heat exchanger and cabin heater.

    • Hey all, I'm sorry if this has been discussed before.  I have a 2008 Japanese import V36 coupe with nav but without Bose. I bought one of those AliExpress android screens, which for the most part works really well.  The only thing that doesn't work is the air con controls (well sort of) and the factory reverse camera.  The AC can be controlled fine but it doesn't report the change in temp and mode to the screen, and the volume knob/other audio controls from the panel don't register on the learning app.  I am pretty certain that the problem is the difference in the head unit between base model (Nav but no Bose) 2007-2009 coupes and anything after 2009.  Mine is the one with the blue connector all the way to the right as seen in this forum post:  The reason I think this is there is one wire left over that doesn't fit anywhere on this head unit, or in the factory screen which also uses different connectors to more recent versions.  I've seen the upgrade from OWC, and have sent the guy a message on eBay but no response yet.  I also don't particularly need the whole kit, just *maybe* an adapter for this one cable.  Did anyone else here have the same problem, or have any insight about what I can do to get this working?  I have been in contact with the seller but all they seem to be able to do is ask for more pictures and videos. Minor edit to add:  I have been researching and found a screen on Aliexpress that actually specifies my head unit in the listing, so these things do exist.  I will contact the seller to see if the wiring adapters are interchangeable with other screens.   Thanks in advance!
