The BD twins kit comes with an additional spigot that goes into the crankcase about a foot or so AFT of the spigot for the OEM turbo drain. BD would probably be happy to sell you the fitting.

Which turbos you gonna run? Using two drains into one is abit risky IMO. you might flood the turbo and ruining the turbo seals, sending oil into the intake/exhaust. A ball bearing garrett uses a oil restrictor, so you might be able to get away with one drain.

Sourceautomotive seals a tap kit so you can add a second drain.
