If you have an early engine (all 1.6s and some NA 1.8s) then there are dedicated feed ports to take oil and coolant to feed the turbo. Both are on the exhaust side of the block, all the way back near the bellhousing, and are plugged with bolts.
We'd be able to be more specific if we knew what year your car was, such as by reading your signature.
As to oil coolers, assuming a stock block, those need to be taken from and returned to the oil filter location. This is the only point in the system where you can divert the flow of oil both out of and back into the engine.
