Sounds good to me mate! Will have to sort something
Love this mate!
Is it the engine dynamics down pipe your using?
What management have you opted for?

glad youve got it running tom, gen 90's plug and play but hard to find one second hand so ends up expensive wheres the adaptronice is a little over 1200 suppiled fitted and mapped (well thats the price I was quoted) and thats what im going with
Trophy Turbo :)
We do the adaptronic just a little cheaper hey tom

Wish a I knew that a tad earlier Andy, you need to get a list of product on Clio turbo

Mapped by us up north where all the good turbo cars are made

I wouldn't do this as you don't get the syphon effect when the engine is off. This is when you want the coolant to work as the oil will cool it when the engine is on.
Best place for me is from the heater matrix. If you have forge or samco hoses it is very easy as you take it from the bypass loop just before the heater matrix. If you have standard hoses then you'll need to tee in just before it.
Cheers, im just struggling too find the correct t peice from heater matrix size down too banjo size :/
Loving the red boost bus
Cheers mate
going for around 240bhp, just intercooler and injectors and a map left Myth busted, my turbo makes all sorts of slurping coolant noises when the engines shut off after a run, and you can witness coolant flowing back into the header tank as it should.

Mine did this to.

What you're seeing is expansion and air pushing coolant around not syphoning as you can syphon with an air gap at the top of the header tank. Laws of physics unfortuately.
Without arguing, it may well follow that thermodynamic law, however.... the coolant is moving yes? ergo cooling the turbo. fin!
It must be working, ive not baked the core yet?

Ive done all mine this way with out issue.
But then again I dont just turn the car off

Not starting an argument, maybe personal preference but I took advice from various sources including Turbo Dynamics so thought I'd pass on the research I did when I was doing my first conversion.
Agree the coolant is moving but the syphon effect will have less air flowing through the turbo so better heat extraction and for longer after the engine is switched off. Bearings would be the first things to be effected by insufficient cooling but this may not be apparent for some time.
Each to their own with regards to many things but just my thoughts on it to the OP and whoever else is planning a similar build.

Which way?
What's the problem
Had the car running lovely, then told i need water cooling... Ive bought the banjos and fitted them but ive had the turbo in and off so many bloody times, trying too sort the return as ive turnt the core slightly for clearance of the banjos, cant access the 4 bolts, cant get the jubilees on return pipe, return sitting on down pipe ect!!!! Really trying me at the moment...

You need to do your homework. See the issues you are having, everyone else has had them before. Just ask for help and the answers will come.

Hang in there Tom! This will be worth it
Rant over lol, just had one if them days and then this adding too it!! My returns into my block, but the angle of my core send return towards downpipe before coming back too block. Core has too be were it is too allow the water banjos too fit... May have too re think return as im just using braided hose all the way. Any ideas??
Copy cupmans return line hers using a gt 28 too
