Run a sandwich plate.
It goes n between the oil filter and block. Its the easiest and the best way to run the oil line.

If its water cooled you have the option of running the coolant lines or not.
To make it easier on your self i say don't run them.
You have to tap into the coolant lines and its to much of a hassle for something that isn't needed.

You mean to tell me its a hastle to run the coolant lines to the turbo? and it isnt needed?
If there not needed then why do manufactures produce turbo section's with cooling inlets and outlets? im guessing not for looks.

Well if you were spending some hefty coin on a Turbo, and it has the inlets and outlets for oiling/cooling, you should use them.
The maufacture didnt waste time and money on making water cooled turbos to not use it.

Why dont we skip hooking up the oil feed and drain and just run coolant through it?
the oiling seems like more of a hastle.....LOL....<----just being a smart ass, dont listen.

wow!
seriously, you should want to run the water lines!
a cool turbo/motor is exactly what you want, lower operating temps = :)

listen to Mr.Burner, he definitely knows his stuff
