Fluid question.

I have a question about types of fluids.
I'm finally getting around to installing my Dual pass and heat exchanger
Dex-Cool isn't available here unfortunately
So I have some Prestone Antifreeze/Coolant..



I was originally going to flush the system
but if it says I can mix with any color anti-freeze.. I should be okay? RIGHT?

And Should I fill it up at the tank or at the filler cap in front of the supercharger?

It's all the same system right?

Thanks in advanced

Can I technically just add that fluid to what I currently have and be OK or should I COMPLETELY flush the system and run this through?
This is what I have
