Is this good enough for an oil feed takeoff? 6-port Turbo

Hi guys, I did a little searching and didn't come up with much so I wanted to ask the more experience where they took off for a turbo oil feed line on their N/A engine.

I saw some stuff about using a new filter block with a threaded port. I have this one from RisingRPM and was wondering if it will be sufficient to take off of for a Borg warner S366. The block is a stock port S5 N/A. I'm upgrading to an FD oil pressure regulator and a S4 TII oil pump as well.

Thanks for your help!

that'll work just fine. For a journal bearing turbo, you want around normal engine oil pressure entering the inlet. For ball bearing turbos you have to run a restrictor because they can only see around 30-40psi tops of inlet oil pressure.
