Default Oil Feed Line

I am boosting an Acura Integra GS...When I run my Oil Feed line off of my turbo what do I need to run it to??? I am not sure the only thing that I have been able to think of is tapping into the oil pan which I don't really want to do unless I have to...

Check with some of the supercharger vendors, I think Vortec has some sort of punch thru setup they use to allow the oil to drain from the supercharger, installs without removing the pan or drilling.

He said oil feed line. If that is what he meant he will need to tap that into an oil galley.

Now if he meant oil return line, then find someplace lower than the turbo where you can safely tap in to the crankcase.

Or you could get one of these nice oil filter sandwich adapters from Golden Eagle and run the oil feed out of there :

the only problem with that unit is space constraints... that would be a nice piece if he were assembling it outside the car. run a line out the back of the block where the oil pressure sender was to a brass T. put the sender in the T and run the other side to the turbo. if you just run a hard T off the block, they typically crack after time, so i like a line coming off the block instead.
