Let me make sure I understand this First you go out and spend big$ on a freeflo exhaust so the turbos in theary will run cooler then you spend more$ on a cold air intacke system so the turbos will get cooler air now you want to cut off the coolant to the turbos.Duh in the first place the coolant doesnt cool the turbine only the bearing sleeve second the incoming air is already drawn from outside the engine compartment. third the exhaust is already a straight through system designd to match the out flow from the turbos. next to the patch a brake line with a piece of rubber hose this has got to be the dumbest suggestion i have read on this forrum.

You should read 91f150's complete thread. You gave him no help, just bla bla bla. His quick idea was negated and he thanked someone for helping him with a way to get it to the shop.
