Where are you all getting your coolant fittings from? The only ones I can find put the rubber very close to the hotside and I am a bit worried about melting the hose.

 

run steel braided lines and dont run cheep push lock fitting with rubber hoses.

this is what you need to bolt to the turbo

after that run a -6 stainless bradied line

 

I melted multiple stainless braided lines with the standard coolant fittings. Finally, I found some new coolant fittings from the local turbo shop http://www.turboengineering.com/ (back when they were still in Golden, CO). They had some that came out at 90 degrees and put the lines a good 3" from the turbine housing. After that, I never had any problems. I haven't seen any fittings like the ones I used online though.
