350 HR Boosted Performance help
 
Hi all I'm looking for some guidance with installing my BP single oil-less turbo kit on my 08 350z HR. The instructions supplied with my HR kit are for a 370z....although they are similar there are a handful of differences.

I am trying to see where I need to tap my coolant lines both feed and return. The instructions I have don't seem to mention anything about installing and tapping cooling lines for the turbo.....its possible that maybe they just never got printed?

Here's what is supplied with my HR kit and some of my confusion.

One line is slightly longer

One of the Coolant T's has a small fitting or plug

The other coolant T does not have the fitting or plug

I'm assuming these are the fittings that go into the turbo coolant ports but they cannot be fully twisted in unless I disassemble the turbo.....was not sure if that would be normal......also is one of the ports on the turbo an (in) and the other one an (out) or does it even matter?

I also have these 2 fittings that also fit into the turbo ports....not sure if this is what they are for though.

I am basically not sure how to hook this stuff up or at least how I am supposed to according to the directions because there are none.

Thank you for any help or pics showing this process.

The T fittings splice into the heater hoses. Bleeder generally goes on the passenger side.

I dont think coolant flow direction through the turbo matters.

If you must take off the turbine housing to clear the tip of the coolant elbow fitting, take great care not to ding up the turbine blades when removing/installing the housing or when handling the turbo with it removed. You might be able to just loosen the bolts and rotate the housing to a different position where the fittings dont hit when rotating.

Thank you for the help. I may end up just getting some different fittings that go to the turbo like 45° angles instead of the 90° fittings that come with the kit. I'll see if it can just be rotated first though.:tup:
