I found that while doing research on adding a remote filter & oil cooler that can also feed the turbo. A good read if nothing else.

I tapped into the oil pressure sensor on the back of my block and ran it to a T on the firewall...

For the coolant, I did like most do and tapped into the line going from the FITV to the intake manifold... it might be kinda hard to see in this picture...

There's lots of other info on this... I just thought I'd add some pics to make it a little easier...

Lots of plumbing for little benifits, I've done dozens of turbo setups and have had 0 problems with oil break down due to heat. Most JDM blocks have external oil coolers off the back of the housings.

Just something you may want to keep in mind
