ct-26 turbo, lines Options

[yungazzdriver]

there are two lines that come off of the ct-26 turbo's (twin entry) wastegate which one goes where???????

in a 3s, the one that points twoard the front of the car goes to the turbo housing, the other goes to the turbo VSV, at the rear of the engine (the purple canister).
for a 5sfte, or with a boost controller, the one that points to the rear gets capped.

thanks and another question is can i just put a black off plate on the water coolant lines? and theres an outlet on the compressor turbo housing i understand that the one on thetip is connected to the wastegate but theres another one is that the oil drain?

no, on the turbo, there are 2 spots to attach hardlines too. one is the oil feed/return the other is for the water lines. DO NOT block them off, thats what cools your turbo.
the hose that goes from your wastegate to the turbo attaches to the nipple that comes out of the compressor housing.

Are you putting a CT-26 on your ST? What manifold are you using?

im going custom its a b16 turbo manifold and cut both flanges and welded new ones but i still needed to know where it gets feeds from and were it lets it out (oil inlet outlet) and how do i attach coolant lines to those(water)

yupppppz

youve got a long road ahead of you.
you REALLY need to start searching the forums, there are some very good writeups and tips about the 7afte all over the board.
youll get the oil feed from your stock oil pressure switch location, and have to drill your oil pan for a return line. for the coolant lines, you'll have to talk to the 7afte guys, im a 5sfte specialist

[yungazzdriver]

yes i know that but i need to know where it is on the turbo

[presure2]

if you look at the turbo, there are 2 "ports" on it. one with 2 holes, (oil feed and return) and one with one larger one, thats coolant
