Re: New camaro build,rear mounted

haha i know i understang the big picture of turboing my car but when you get down to the details i dont know what im doing

Re: New camaro build,rear mounted

every turbo uses oil....not so much as to cool as it needs it for a lubricant for the bearings. sounds like you need to do more googling

Not all turbos use oil. I'm pretty sure Steve's is water cooled.

Re: New camaro build,rear mounted

haha god all the details with a turbo build are confusing like i seen something that said when its water cooled u have to mount it at a certain angle or a certain degree one way

Re: New camaro build,rear mounted

Yes mines watercooled and uses oil, I'm sure that all turbos use oil , using aa water cooled one means no turbo timer to prevent coking since I'm in a very Hot state.

Re: New camaro build,rear mounted

did you have to mount youre turbo at a certain degree

Yes, straight up so oil goes down and the coolant goes pretty much level.

where do you run your water from

Coolant lines off of the tensioner, probably the only place that works well.

Re: New camaro build,rear mounted

would it work to make your own tank to hold the water for the turbo

like use this for turbo coolent

Re: New camaro build,rear mounted

No, you need a pump to have it flow through the turbo when the car is on , using the coolant lines works the best this way.

Re: New camaro build,rear mounted

i've got a watercooled motor... i think i'll still put oil in it though... just sayin:)
you wouldn't lubricate bearings with antifreeze would ya?

Re: New camaro build,rear mounted

the gt35 are oil and water and i just wonts a oild cooled so what the next best

oil and water is best... but for rear turbo thats more work and money ...


and Remote Turbos run Approximately 500F lower turbo temperatures
