Message After all, I'm sure YOU wouldn't say such a blanket statement without plenty of documented evidence to back it up, or would you. I'm sure you have studies in which the exact same turbos were run under the exact same conditions, and the ones that were oil and water cooled lasted twice as long.Better yet, POST THEM. I'm sure everyone would be very interested. As for your radiator statement the larger radiator would have no any affect on the highway. You see there is this thing called a thermostat in the water system, and it's set to 170 F., that's about 77 C. On a very cool day the water temps MIGHT stay at that temp., whereas even on the hottest days, as it's been here, my oil temps run at 70 C. Of course these temp. differences really would make no difference in the life of the turbos, but the point is, with a well cooled oil system the temp. of your oil will be the same, and in many cases cooler than your water temps. As for you lipstick comment, very mature Gyro.
