I would take the turbo feed from the radiator top hose and also feed the header tank back to the bottom hose on the engine. There is also a return from the turbo that needs to be plumbed back in.

Green pipes are the small bore self bleeds.

 

Turbo as Pip says wants to go from either stat housing or top hose, to the distribution block on the bottom of the engine near the bottom hose.

Your picture will not fill or bleed itself nicely.
