Default Turbo oil pan for s2k?

So I was wondering are there any good companies making oil pans for the s2000 that are meant for the Turbo application. As in do they come with the pre tapped holes for oil lines and also for what I have read come with a baffle.

I have never tapped a oil pan before and don't trust myself, I'd rather just buy one pre tapped and install.

All my
Other cars came from the factory turboed so I have no issues with that.

Actually I have looked up and ppl say to tap the girdle for the oil lines. Where exactly on the block would this be. Or is it basically anywhere on the lower half of the block?

Planning on buying the full blown kit the new direct bolt on kit they came out with. But I want to install the kit on my own but I have never had the means to tap anything before since all my previous cara came boosted. I read that tapping the girdle is the best. But is there anywhere specific to do it. I would has to get my friend who is a mechanic to come
Over and tap it for me.

you can do like i did, remove the pan, send it to full blown, they will tap then send back to you and you reinstall.

A lot of people tap the timing chain cover. There was a guy on here who had a few already tapped and a bung welded on for sale a while back. Not sure if he still has any, search the forced induction for sale section.

This is probably also similar to what I'll do (or I'll try to find a local place to weld in the bung).

I've seen a few people say the girdle is best practice for the smoothest drain, but if the pan is tapped correctly I don't think many people experience problems with it.
