Okay. Just finished my 6-bolt swap, and it runs!!:)
But on the 7-bolt block has a nipple on the block for the middle
Coolent line on the turbo, but the six bolt block doesn't...so there
Is no place for it. How do I delete it or where else can I put it?
 
heres the line that has no where to go with the new 6-bolt block and needs somewhere to go or to be deleted

HOW DO I DELETE THEM?? LOL im stumped
 
well if i just take the lines off coolant will just spill out of the turbo correct?

and now that i caped off the two turbo coolant lines, and the turbo coolant feed line
got too much pressure in the coolant system and my car got toooo hot.

right under my MBC you can see i capped off the line that fed the turbo coolant.

And right to the left and right of the turbo you can see where i caped off the turbo coolant lines

You don't need to cap anything on the turbo as you won't even have coolant going to the turbo at all (take both coolant lines off the turbo completely). You only need to block the line that would let coolant run out [of the engine]. It seems like you're over thinking things.

I'm not quite following you on this one. The pressure in your coolant system is there because of thermal expansion. If you have more pressure than usual, it probably means you're sucking in air somewhere -- yes you can suck air into the cooling system with out ever actually leaking any coolant. Air expands more than water, so it makes more pressure -- your coolant will be replaced with air even though you are not leaking coolant (it's getting pushed into the overflow bottle, kind of like when you have a bad head gasket).
