This should DEFINITELY be a sticky:)

What's a better way to do it? Keep it closer to the water pump? I guess flow would be more important than temperature, right? I really have no idea what I'm doing, advise is greatly appreciated.
Further discussion should be off of Rafa's thread. Make a new thread or PM me if you have questions after reading it. |
^ Actually, I'd say Rafa should make his own thread, as Rob started this to point out a great OEM part as a potential reroute part :)

Something like this... I think. Might want to wait til someone confirms before you go trying it though.

Thanks for the tips guys, makes more sense now. I'll let you know when/if I manage to get this thermostat in and how it goes.

Just received my thermostat in the mail. FWIW, all 3 hoses are 1.25 inches in diameter. I've still got to collect some more parts before it's ready to install, but hopefully it all goes well.

Some great info in here. Many thanks! I hope to be able to put my reroute together soon for you all to criticize. |

He uses hypers smart coolant, it knows which way to flow for optimum cooling. How? That's a secret. :loser:

I was asking when I posted that route. This is the first reroute thread I'd been involved in and at the time I was thinking about what I wanted the coolant to do, not what physics wanted the coolant to do. People posted, pointing out my error, and I accepted it and thanked them for their assistance. I don't know what more you want from me, but if I've offended you by posting I'm sorry.

Well, I just bought one, we'll see how it goes :P

I'm gonna be using my heater core, I've gotta figure out how to route this thing. I know I'm gonna need a Protege coolant neck, but am I gonna need anything else, like one of those lame spacers or what?

I was thinking about this earlier, I think it would require less plumbing (and nothing on the hotside) and would still achieve the same goal. Thoughts?

Yeah, if you don't need a heater core, that's a winner.
I'm starting mine in 1 hour. I don't see the benefits of deleting that part. |
