    What for? From anything I've read BB turbos benefit from them and keep from wearing out as fast..

    any information behind your opinion..

Idk.

    Just looking for some opinions on it before I commit. Lol
    I don't see why that wouldn't work, just seemed like a lot of extra work to me, but I didn't realize you were tucking everything.

    Why? They are there for a reason and Garrett recommends it.

    Setup that is driven for a good amount of time like a street car, yes. To keep temps down.

    Setup for drag, not so important due to the short amount of time run. Temps come in fast, so they don't heat up internals to serious levels.

    All in all it depends the real use for the turbo and application.

    Sorry.

    Ya. I wanted the hoses to be somewhat hidden and not up toward the top of the engine. I might take a look at that tho. If I tap the ktuned coolant neck maybe I could use the original drain from the radiator for the other line?

    I have just been slacking too much on my build lately...

    Do you have oil cooler lines like on the 8th gen? Could tap there.

    So. Going to try and attempt to start hooking up my boost oil pressure and aem uego this weekend.. did everyone else have to extend all the plug wires?

    I hate wiring.. is it pretty much as easy as hooking all 3 red to positive 12v and blacks to ground then plugging them all in?

    Taking baby steps. Anyone have any advice that's has ran these before?...

    Spaz maybe...

    I don't know about the wires, but use honda bond on any pipe thread involved with those fittings.
