Gti6 Cooling

Recommended Posts

Hi guys,

 

I'm nearing completion of my gti6 conversion with just the cooling pipes to sort. However i'm failing to see where i can put the pip from the bottom of the header tank? Normally it goes to the distribution block on the back of the 205 lump but with the 306 it only has 2 outputs, one from the rad and the othr to the heater matrix.

 

Where have people plumbed there's into who have done this before?

 

Cheers

 

Sean

I've Tee'd it into the hose that connects to the top heater matrix connection.

 

Where have you connected your oil cooler up to?

I have got an oil to air cooler coming so have ditched the standard water cooler, and am using a 406 pipe from the stat to the rad.

Nice, so have you connected the 2 outlets from the engine straight to the 2 outlets of the heater matrix so far?

Thats the same as what I've done with mine and it seems to be good so far. Been running it for 4 months and a few track days.

 

Have ran the bottom heater matrix pipe in to the bottom engine outlet (with the oil cooler T'd in to it) and the top heater matrix pipe in to the top engine outlet (with the expansion tank T'd in to it).

I replaced the two port water housing with one from a diesel turbo which had three ports B)
