Cooler oil will be thicker and can slow a turbo down but at pretty much anything above 'first switched on' temperature it won't make a difference.

it won't have a detremental effect in the winter if you fit the right kit.
Cheap kits, or tight wads skimp and don't get the thermostatic take off plate.
