My turbo is mounted low and in the rear so I use a scavenge pump after the turbo and drain the oil into the passenger side valve cover. Sandwich plate is really simple so if that's what you prefer, go for it.

thanks guys.. yeah.. I was only considering a sandwich plate beacause I read somewhere that if we tap off the oil pressure off its default location by using a T-piece, there is a high possiblity of the sensor breaking due to the car movement/bumps. So by using the sandwich plate, I would not need to touch my stock oil pressure as a oil pressure source for my turbo..
