i think he means an oil AND coolant cooled turbo.... like the aps. If so it takes it from the back port on the pass side cyl head for one and from the big plug on the drivers side of block for the other. Hope this helps!

No need to use coolant unless it's a pair of small oem originated turbos or a BB cartridge garret R series. It's not recommended to use BB center sections with big shaft turbos it eats them up too quickly.
