A lot, if not most, t3/t4's are just oil cooled, its not a problem
T3/T04E water cool ?
Guy..
I have bought one used T3/T04E Stage 3 with AR82 and AR60 Compressor Trim 60
i have one issue.
The Turbo is dont have water line. just oil line
Does it post any issue if i running without water line ?
Any possible to mod the CHRA to be water cooled ?
And how to check whether it is have 360 trust bearing ?
i try to spin it using hand.
look it spin faster than my T3/T04B stage 2 turbine and Stage V compressor

like all of them unless you get a ballbearing center section.

the water cooeld section doesnt do much for performance however it does increase longevity of the turbo because it stays cooler. countless people are running just oil cooled turbos with no issues what so ever.
I wasn't talking about performance or anything, just mentioning they are all oil cooled unless you go ballbearing center section, then they add the water cooling, simple. Now, ballbearing turbos do increase performance, they decrease spool time. That gets you to full boost quicker, hence better performance.

My T3T4E is water and oil cooled. The water is not hooked up though.
The center section can be opened up and the bearing can be replaced with a "wet bearing" type setup. The turbo can also have 360* bearings installed instead of the standard 270* bearing most of them come with.
My T3/TO4E is ball bearing and oil cooled.
Did you just leave it open or are there bolts in?Projnx2000 said:My T3T4E is water and oil cooled. The water is not hooked up though.

Mine was water cooled. T3/T4E had it on my car for 5 years before I sold it never had a problem with it. Next one I get is goin to be water cooled too.

I just left it open. Don't know if thats good or bad thing. Its air-cooled...trblsme2k2 said:Did you just leave it open or are there bolts in?
i dont think it shoudl be an issue, the coolant just flows around the center section, i'd think it would be fine left openProjnx2000 said:I just left it open. Don't know if thats good or bad thing. Its air-cooled...
