IF using the Tomei Block adapter - filter block out to oil filter relocator
- from filter relocator to oil cooler
- out of oil cooler back to filter block
For Turbo - oil feed from block to turbo
- turbo back to block

Leave the turbo lines to where they're supposed to be. Leave the turbo oil lines alone. Basically, oil feed line from the block to the turbo and let the turbo drain naturally.
You routing the oil cooler in between the oil filter relocation back to the turbo would mean you're gonna squeeze ALL your oil thru the damn turbo. Fastest way to kill everything in your car (TURBO AND ENGINE).
Like I said, route it from the oil filter block to the oil filter relocation block, to the oil cooler, then back to the oil filter block. Run the turbo oil feedline straight to the turbo. Even your current setup is baaaaaad idea. There is no need to have an oil cooler inbetween the turbo and the block, pretty much defeats the purpose of a cooler since you're only cooling the oil going to the turbo and not thru the whole engine.
