Default Zetec

Got myself a Zetec 2.0L and going to turbocharge it.
Can anyone post some pics of where to tap into the block for the oil return and for oil feed do I use the oil pressure switch hole in the main oil gallery?
Also what CR are people generally running at around the 22 PSI held mark.
And what needs modding on the engine mount side to fit the S2? Is it best to ally weld the stud threads in the head and then redrill/retap for the new holes to fit the S2 exhaust manifold or is the adapter plate an easier option?
Many Thanks.

Thanks Adam been to these sites before and they are helpful but I was hoping for a more comprehensive guide. Never Mind I think I`ll just measure the CR and fit forged rods and pistons and dummy build her.
Am I correct in thinking that I need the 1.8 sump and pickup pipe? and can I use the RST flywheel? As I know the mondy one is too big.

Dont think youll get a comprehensive guide for free mate.

Go into the Rebuilds & Projects section and have a look for my thread in there, the photo diary of my build......(the 4 page thread).
