saab turbo and coolant?
Saturday, January 29, 2011 9:03 AM
since building my motor and putting the saab kit on seems like my coolant temp is a little higher that it was before with the 95 2.2. it this because the coolant goes into the turbo? what temps are you guys with the saab kit running for coolant.

thanks
helps a ton

I'd suggest bumping it up to a 75 shot, that and a bottle heater would help.

honestly jason it makes sense that your temps would rise a little. think about it you have the same size radiator, same temp. thermostat, and same lathargic water pump. unless you upgrade one of these three then your temp will rise. reason being a turbo can commonly see EGT temps from 800-1800 *F. id suggest a cooler thermostat if you haven't done so already. thats a simple one to do. next is the radiator try cramming a different car's thicker/wider radiator in there, last i would try to come across a higher flowing more consistent (electric pump) if possible.

Y I have a bigger radiator and a flex a lite dual fan set up 2200 cfm total. Figured it out, tiny air pocket in the coolant supply to the turbo.

Thanks

I thought about running that, I have some in the garage but have heard that it can hurt the turbo seals from someone that had it and voided his turbo warranty.
