Default Water cooled turbo here, need coolant feed/return (did search)

Where would be the best place to tap a feed and return for coolant? I was thinking about stealing the hoses from the throttle body and running those to and from the turbo, but I don't know the LS1 engine well enough yet and I'm not sure if that will provide enough flow.

If you HAD to plumb this, how would YOU do it?

Thanks in advance!

heater core hoses are the easiest.

The incon kit removed a plug in the block (large allen) and replaced it with an adapter that had a -6 fitting on it for the feed, then returned it through the heater hose...
