This setup will be good for 100,000+ miles with out issues. There is a reason why all factory turbo cars run hard water lines off the turbo.

Here is my ptunning kit with a garrett gtx3076r with evo 8 hardline for the water.

thats is a good looking photo

This similar to what your running? Also it should be the same for the gt series and gtx series right?

I searched on Amazon as forcebird recommended

Banjo Bolt kit M14x1.5 mm to -4AN Garrett GT28R GT30R GT35R T28 Turbo Coolant

You have a Garret turbo as well?

next step. I need to get a dual 3 inch exhaust and a test pipe getting ready for e85. Don't know which one to get.

Yeah I have a garrett gt35. My line from ptunning leaked after some heat driving too. So basically your running the stainless line to a adapter with regular line? Most dual 3 inches are custom only. I have a custom 3in single on mine.

Exactly stainless line to an adapter to a regular line. It was $55 to get 2 lines in a packet. They weren't too hard to get installed. I want dual exhaust because I like the way they look and I have the ap2 bumper. Im thinking about going dual borla pro xs downpipe 3 in all the way

and a vibrant ultra quiet resonator

There hasnt been anyone that has done the borlas... ive seen some magnaflows tho...

I like the look of dual better. I previously had qtp 3 inches electric cut out mated to my ap1 stock exhaust with UK mod. I love that setup. The qtp cut out had a small leak. I should've just sent that back for repairs. Instead I took it off and did a custom single with the vibrant can style resonator and magnaflow exhaust. A little too loud for my liking but I got tune on that set up so I can't switch back unless I do a retune.
