How many of you here runs turbo with both watercooled and oil cooled? Mine was just cooled by oil and my freinds told me its a big no no. watercooled needed as well

Happy new year bro. long time nvr hear frm u in the forum. pls correct me if im wrong. Issit mostly big turbo (anything after T3) doesnt really need watercooled anymore?
Kippo bro,
This lead me thought of another thing. Lets say should i have watercooled my turbo as well, does it help in more stablizing my oil temp or even might reduce my oil temp abit since coolant already helping out to cool out the turbo? Less turbo heat, less oil heat?
Khoyos bro,
The info i found out was due to larger turbo spool up times was less frequent as small turbo that more freq boosting up due to it smaller size hence larger turbo doesnt really need the watercooled. Not sure how true it is though but it does make abit sense

so i was curious. If now i go and hook up the waterjack on my turbo, which will use my radiator water to cool the turbo as well rite? If so, would it possible that ow my water temp will go higher since its sharing the heat load that all the while my oil is bearing? Would it possible that my oil will less heat since water is sharing partially of the heat?
If there is no issue of high temperature, it is not worth the extra money to spend. Why cool your turbo a lot than required if there is no benefit?
