Air flow in a turbo engine?
 
This is my first turbocharged car so I'm figuring stuff out as I go.

There is a ton of plumbing which is different than what I'm accustomed to. I think that I've figured it out but correct me if I'm wrong.

1. In the front of the car
2. Through the air filter
3. Through the MAF
4. Down behind the engine
5. Into the turbo and round and round
6. Up over the engine through the hard tube
7. In the left side of the radiator.
8. Out the right side of the radiator
9. To the throttle body

Is the passage through the radiator to cool the air?

You got it. Except that is the intercooler, not radiator. Yes, it cools the charged air from the turbo.
