I believe right above the drain plug there is a pressurized spot.

I run a Moroso pan with a remote oil filter. I pick oil up after it has been filtered and and after the oil cooler. You can get it from the place in the pick but I have no idea if it is pre or post filtered. If it is pre, then it would not be a bad idea to put a small oil filter inline with it before the turbo.

Kurt Urban makes a nice fitting that plugs into the port of the stock oil pressure sending right behind the intake. Fitting has 3x -4 an ports and 1 for your stock oil pressure sensor (optional).
