where to pull the coolant for turbo

Pull it from your throttle bodies if you pull your skid plate youll see what im talking about. You can just run the hose directly to your turbo then the return side directly into your throttle bodies so you dont need to T into anything. Thats what I did
Just a suggestion, if you use the throttle body circuit, you put all that turbo water heat right into the motor...lots of folks do it, but I found a huge reduction (20-30 degrees) in engine temp when I got away from that scheme.
Gus is the guy who pointed it out. I still use the throttle body water supply hose from the pressure side of the water pump, but now I return the water to a T in the return line going to the heat exchanger just behind the mag end of the motor. I now run 106-109 most of the time with it reaching 130ish on a long hard pull. Way way cooler.
