Talk to ktec they could supply you with the bits.

The return goes straight from the bottom of my turbo into the sump. You will need to drill and tap the sump.

The pressure sender is where you can tee off the oil feed.

What engine is it for a start?

Im using a rover 800 stainless oil feed and Mocal electric scavenge pump. As mine is a valver engine there were already holes from the oil level and oil temp sensors.

t-piece from the oil pressure sender hole (quite commonly used in OEM applications) or use a sandwich plate between the block and filter with take-off ports in it.

no, oil needs to drain into the sump above the level of oil. If it doesn't you will almost definitely get a backfeed of oil and the turbo core will be over oiled and pressurised which will cause the seals to fail
