88811, water cooled t3?
Posted by GreenRicer, Aug-18-05 11:38 AM
Hey guys, just a real quick question. Im thinking about buying a t3 off of a Saab 900, and its water cooled. My question is that do you HAVE to run coolant through it, or is oil enough to get the job done? TIA

oil will do the job but cooling it with water too is much better.

Thanks for the info man, so for now I'll just run oil, but later on if I decide to water cool it as well, what all would I need? Ive been searching but cant find anything.
