Default Turbo Oil Line Tap

I have a question that i have been trying to find a specific answer to and i can't seem to pin point it. When i'm going to put a turbo on a B16 in my civic i want to know the easiest way to tap my engine for an oil send and an oil return. I'm using a T3/T4 turbo and i want to know how to do it, where to do it and is there something i could buy to make it simple install. I'm goin to do it myself. Thanks!

Feed= back of the block. T off the oil pressure sending sensor

Return= tap the pan with Earls fittings.

I heard that the tap in the pan has to be at a certain angle. is that true? How do you tap the oil sending line. I apologize if i sound stupid but i'm new to this.

Make it at an angle so that it will drian into the pan easily. No kinks in the line. I'd suggest a 45 degree angle directly into the pan.

I would use Areoquip fittings if I were you. They are easier then earls to use. I used Earls on mine, but I talked to some people and they said Areoquip are alot easier to use.
