How are you guys water cooling the exhuast housing on the turbo's?

Did they come with waterjackets from garrett or did you add them?

Just courious as my long term plan for my LS pontoon is two small turbo's. Turbo toon has a nice ring to it.

Always seems like the SAMs students and their entries are always in the money. They seem real sharp, too bad there is not a marine program like that offered.
