Most turbo's offer both options. Typically only the oil cooling is used.

Yes it will run but the water cooling offers oem type longevity that some people like.. piece of mind.

Re: oil cooled vs oil and water cooled turbo

ehh i suppsoe thats a plus. but i think the life of this turbo will only be lived as long as my motor remains unbuilt. after that bigger the a t3 42 trim will be needed. like a 57 trim or so. or like a gt28r or gt35r turbo something like that.
