Change of turbo advice!

[Gord R]

Hi Guys,

As iv been looking for a different turbo for my hillclimbing, Im planning on a custom spec Garrett build, but as funds are going to other areas of the car at the moment iv managed to pick up a GT2554R at the right money to put me on.

Im hoping it will bolt onto my current Sard manifold, but obviously I need to alter my oil feed fittings and add additional water feeds.

So just got a couple of questions as I want to make sure its right,

Firstly, where is the best place to pick up a water feed and where is the best place to return it to?

Secondly, I presume I need to fit a restrictor if there isnt one built into the turbo?

Thanks
Gordon

i think i prob wrong but dont you plum into the heater water pipes???

Using the existing water lines should be fine to be honest
and yes a restrictor will be needed if there isnt one on the turbo or risl blowing seals out, allthough starlets dont really run high oil pressure it better to be safe then sorry

also please keep us updated on this as shouldnt be mega laggy on such a small version of the 28 on there
