Coolant leak - revisited - might be screwed here
So I stopped the car in the garage today, and had the hood popped to check a/c refrigerant, and lo and behold, something starts spouting off like a geyser. Way too hot to get in there, but I could see coolant spraying off of the turbo on the intake side - it almost looked like it was coming out of the turbo itself, over by the intake, but I know that can't be because there's no coolant circulating there, right? Any guesses? Unfortunately, it doesn't leak when it's cold, and when it's hot, I cant get to anything to look at it.
This sucks.

Got the coolant system pressure tester.....that didn't take long to find the leak - a little tiny hose (about 6" long or so) that appears to come off the back of the block and connects to the turbo. It has a right angle (almost) in it, and it was a giant pain in the rear to get to, as it was tucked behind the heater core hose. Anyone know what this hose is for? If it matters, it's a 1994 855t with a 16t turbo on it.

its the turbo inlet cooling hose.
Its a common popper, I know 4 people not including you who have had this happen in the last week.
Its a easy fix from underneath.
