Default Expansion Tanks - Need or No Need for Turbo ????

Hi Folks,

Asked this question on TS forum but wondering if anyone here had additional input.

Currently I have just a closed loop on my cooling stsyem and was going to put the turbo water return back into the top of the radiator via a new welded in port.

Can you see any problems with this kind of set up ?

What method have you chosen for your Turbo installs??

Having more thoughts and descussions last night and am now wondering about the fact that the radiator is pressurised once the car is up and running.

How would this effect the flow from the turbo if it were fighting against back pressure in the rad???

While on the subject, has anyone got a picture of a 2WD YB bottom radiator hose please?
