Turbo II rear housing has water port above the exhaust port for the turbo coolant feed.


i couldnt see any difference in the old rear and the new front.. what are you talking about with the ports having a turbo coolent feed?

If you look on the rear rotor housing about the area where everyone cuts there P-Ports at you will see a hole, that passes though the lower intake manifold to feed the water for turbo. There are other places to get coolent from for a turbo if needed. I wield mine closed. I you can drill a front for the port too if you like.
