How are the roads leading to the Ilocos Region??? Which exit will I use leaving the NLEX to head North to Ilocos???
This part I can answer. The NLEX ends at Dau - you can't miss it as it's a whole toll plaza. From there, after paying your toll fees, you can either continue on straight to Mabalacat, take the on-ramp to the SCTEx and turn right at the fork going to Subic, or stick to the left side of the SCTEX fork going to Clark (which is what you probably don't want to do, given your intended destination).

The traditional route is to get off at Mabalacat and turn into the MacArthur Highway to go anywhere farther north.

There are signs pointing out that the SCTEx to Subic is a northward route going to Baguio; you'll have to get off at Luisita and make a detour along the Luisita Access Road going back to MacArthur Highway.
