    If you turn off the heater, does it stop the flow of water and hence the water through the turbo, or will it just close a air flap.
    By all means get a Defender. If you get a good one, you'll be happy. If you get a bad one, you'll become a philosopher.

    I've removed my heater box and rearranged its orientation, and there is no valve controlling water flow to it. Just the flap

    No. BadCo is correct on the heater part not having a valve - but expanding on it the 4BD1 has a bypass so even if you do have a valve on the heater pipes (many do in hot climates) you're not compromising the cooling of the engine or coolant flow for the engine.
