Default Turbo Configuration for SOHC Engine

Ok I've finally decided on using a Garrett T03 Turbo froman old Chrysler 2.2 and all I need to do is buy the manifold and misc parts. The turbo is capable of 25psi+ of boost which I plan ononly using about 7psi for my mostly stock engine with a stock wastegate. I'm not looking to make insane power but rather just increase my Power over 170hp on stock internals for now. I have the MLS Head gasket in mine from factory so the head gasket should be able to cope with the increased pressure more so than an earlier Neon 2.0 (so I'm hoping!).

This Turbouses engine coolent to cool itself and it needs engine oil (of course) to lubricate itself.

My Question is, whereon a SOHC 2.0 Engine is the best spot topipe into theengine cooling system to take coolent for the turbo?And also I wouldhave to drill a hole in the oilpan for the oiling line correct?

I'm kinda new to the world of turbo's so any advice would be appreciated Thanx

for the coolant lines you can just T off from the heater core lines or figureo ut which fittings on the bak of the block are for coolant....

for the oil pan,

it actually wasnt the oil filter....the whole back of the motor was covered pretty well in oil because the oil return line had a small slit in it[&:]
