Default Turbo Coolant Lines Idea

So i got a new radiator that has the two extra fittings for what i guess is the Automatic Tranny cooler (?)

They are both on the radiator but can i run my turbo coolant feed/return two the fittings and be okay???

thats not going to work....the coolant flows in a direction IN the turbo then OUT. If you hook both of them up to that it's not gonna flow anywhere. Use the lines from your throttle body, you get a cooler TB and the lines are already there. good question though

ATF is pumped in and out by the turbine inside the transmission. If you use the TB lines they are already set up to flow.

you could use one as a return line for coolant coming out of the turbo....but you can't use both.
