    Cut where you have "cut", put the barb there. You will need to extend the coolant return to the turbo with the supplied line. A banjo will then attach that extended line to the turbo. The banjo on the block is the coolant feed, on the other end of that line you will need another banjo @ the turbo. The threaded piece that goes into the turbo, the hole on the turbo with the very small orfice, is the oil feed.

    Either coolant connection can be a feed or return, its just an open cavity. Usually the one towards the head is used for the feed and the outer one for the return.

    alright thanks a lot, i figured the coolant didnt matter. I was going to do in from the top and out from the bottom anyways.

    Would you lock-tight just about everything on the install?

    no locktite. it will just burn off since the turbo gets so hot so it is worthless to put on.

    Yea no locktite, especially not ANYWHERE near the oil/coolant connections. Last thing you want is any of that getting into the turbo and harming the bearings!!!
