Default Turbo oil feed?

Im building my 1st ls turbo set up, and I was just wondering where the best place is to tap into to get oil for the turbo? By the oil filter or off the oil pressure sensor? I've herd of people doing both but I want mine to be right lol. Any imput would be much appreciated. Pics would be nice to if possible

I tap the plate above the filter and use an adapter to the oil pressure sensor for my gauge.

This replaces the factory piece that most tap for their oil feed. I plan on grabbing one soon.
