Water in- & outlet 4agze ae101

If we assume that all connections to the remote thermostat housing are
at the same pressure, then points 2 and 3 will be at the same pressure.
The only force that will make flow in the turbo cooling circuit is the
pressure differential between the point you tee'd into the bypass line, and
the thermostat housing.

In loose terms, the flow in each circuit will be proportional to the
resistance. And in your case, the resistance of the turbo circuit will be far
greater than the resistance between the tee and the housing. IMHO, you
will get negligible flow in the turbo circuit with the heater valve closed.

To get flow in the turbo circuit you will need to create some resistance in
the tube/hose between the point where you tee'd into the bypass hose,
and the thermostat housing. Probably the easiest way would be to get a
small ball valve from a plumbing store, and insert it in the hose. Then
you can partially close it to force a percentage of the bypass water to go
thru the turbo circuit.

Regarding thermosyphon, this will only occur if the hot water can rise
naturally from the turbo to the radiator, and thus create circulation.
