What's that all about then ?

I'v seen it mentioned quite a lot

What are the advantages/disadvatages ?

Easy to do ?

Do you have to remove the plenum or can it be done in situ ?

It means there's about 50 fewer joins to leak afterwards ! You probably can do it with the plenum on, but it'll be a bit easier with it off. Could dump the EGr at the same time too.

Improved reliablity.....as above, it removed loads of potential water leak points and the water pipes are not needed - Nissan overengineering.

 

Plus it makes it easier/quicker to remove and refit plenum.

I bypassed mine in situ , quite easy .

You need to remove the hard pipes off the turbo,s to gain access to the turbo coolant pipes .

If you look at the two metal pipes at the back of the engine that feed the matrix , each one has a small pipe just below were the rubber feed pipes to the matrix are.these feed the water around the plenum and the tubs.

Remove the original turbo rubber 6mm coolant pipes , take a new feed from the matrx feed pipes mentioned above , one to each turbo and thats it :dance: :dance: HTH

bump for info reasons, gonna attempt it at some point, and will make it easier to find
