Water cooled turbo setup

1) I want to know if that is an appropriate setup for turbo coolant, ive read many topics on this issue but ive never seen any detailed enough, and also how much will this effect the engine temps? alot, somewhat, or nothing to worry about because im doing oil cooled as well, I just dont want to run a turbo timer and whatnot...
2) Will this setup be able to run stable enough for the water pump? or is it to much pressure to supply for it?
If I'm reading your diagram correctly, that is the way I have my turbo hooked up...
I tapped into the line that goes from the FITV (right under the throttle body) to the intake manifold, the line that has a section of hardline that is normally stacked under the valve cover breather line... (hard to explain)
My engine temps did not increase at all when I did this, I didn't see any difference in the way it drove or the operating temp...
Here's a pic of my setup, it's hard to see where the water lines are coming from... the yellow arrow is pointing to the water lines (I'm sure you could tell that!)

what kind of radiator do you have? i have gone through a couple of them because my internal wastegate likes to RAM into my radiator core whenever i shift hard
I have an aftermarket stock radiator which is almost brand new, im going to remove the air conditioner compressor as well for the install for more room.
