Tap into the heater core lines. That way you know you have a solid full feed of coolant. Thats what i did and it took 30 seconds. Just get a T fitting, cut the two heater core lines, T into them, then run lines to the turbo. Simple as pie.

It's better if you integrate the turbo's coolant lines into the coolant system than if you just tee them into it. Remove one of the lines going from the coolant pipe to the throttle body. Then run a line from the throttle body to the coolant inlet fitting on the turbo and run a line back from the coolant outlet fitting to the coolant pipe.

i dont even suggest T'in into them.. just reroute them all together. if your not in the north u really dont need the throttle body to be heated at all. (and hes in Tx)

but whatever works. water is water as long as its got flow to it.

hey anyones opinion matters to me I understand what you mean bro

im just nervous about the winters down here just because they change so frequently super cold one day and super hot the next its unpredictable. But hey you helped me find the coolant lines and I appreciate that I didnt even know where they were at. lol

oh yeah which line is which? still trying to figure out under the throttle body which line is the return and which line is the feed?

Also does anyone know where to find a 16G 9.8T oil return flange? need one about 5/8ths of an inch I will buy one new or used asap!!!

water lines really dont matter which way you route them.
oil return just get any evo oil return kit. u will have to cut the J pipe thing in half because its to long.
(any evo that has upgraded to a bigger turbo will no longer use there oil return line, so message a few people with forsale threads, see if they have an extra laying around for the oil return line)
if i remember right it was like a 30$ part form mitsubshi with we bought it for my buddies lancer we did a 16g setup on. (not 100% sure on that price) but we only used one piece from the kit, and we cut it in half..
