Ace...if your gonna use a sandwitch adapter later on, I have the greddy one that I'll sell you.

with the fluctuations, 8 does not seem to bad. I mean, when I'm at idle, my Oil presure is at about 10. cruizing at about 40, and full on can get up to 60.

yeah that's about what mine is.. it just changes a couple times per second.. first of all matt's tune is awful for my car apparently because my idle is very shatty... it bounces when i first put in the clutch and then bounces lightly from 500-700rpms when i'm at a light or something... but in general, my idle oil pressure goes from around 8-12

this is how I did my oil pressure gauge. Thanks to Eddie (soros151)

This is how it goes:

Use this part: Autometer 2269
After that, use a little extension (1/8NPT male on both sides)
Then a "T" (female T all around with entry of 1/8NPT)
The put the pressure sensor on the top and the OEM pressure switch on the bottom
Run all the cables and the Gauge

REMEMBER: Always use thread locker (Medium Strengh/Blue) on all the threads, ALWAYS! If not, then u will have a leak. U have to let the threa locker cool off and harden. Let it sit for an hour and a half.

This is a little map: :D

Thread Locker/Autometer 2269/ ThreadLock/Shortest Extension u can use/ThreadLock/"T"/ThreaLock// and both Oil pressure Switches




Autometer 2269 1/8NPT to 1/8BSPT

Yeah, mine leaked, I went to fix it and broke the damn fitting off in my block!

I had to tap that sucker out, get a new one, seal it again (red rtv) but I didn't want to over tighten and snap it again.
Mines leaking again, and when I touched it, it was not even hand tight! If it wasn't for the steal braided feed line, the thing would have fallen right off....haven't gotten around to fixing it again! But I better before I track it. so I missed last night.

no, I'm NA for the time being. all you would need to do is swap out the extender piece for another "T" fitting and you can run your oil line right off of it.
