The correct way is to install a 2x 6 backer plate between the studs where the cabinets are to be hung. If there is not one there you can tear out the drywall and install one. However the base cabinets can be attached using metal drywall screws or lag bolts. Since the countertop will put weight on these they really wont go anywhere, the wall cabinets are the main concern. you can try to use metal stud screws and lag bolts on them as well.
everything including 5/8 drywall only requires 1 1/4 length drywall screws. you put them in 16 inches apart on the studs and in the center the same distance apart.

Your question is vague. - Usually plumbing pipe fitting is between studs in the walls. To fit new pipes, find studs with a 'studfinder' then cut down the centre of studs to remove drywall. Install pipe, then refit with new drywall on the 3/4 " of stud each side.
