It's above the oil filter on the back of the block. There is a black rubber grommet that covers it up.

Where to you give the turbo it's oil supply if you didn't tap into the oil pressure sensor?

Yes, the stock cat will restrict power. Just curious, what kind of turbo kit are you running?

You probably can't see the oil pressure sensor b/c of the sandwich adaptor. It probably sticks out further than the sensor does so it's blocking your view.
