what size threads are on the sensor you plan to run? i assume its 1/8th npt cause most are but hell you never know.

im not sure..i didnt buy the sensor yet. But i still need the fitting that comes with the aem gauge, because i had to order the wires for it and it was supposed to come with it, so i guess i need to get that fitting first

im a bit lost here...

so you got an aem oil pressure gauge but the sensor didnt come with it?

07tctul

yea the kit i bought just came with the gauges and pod(no wires just the gauge it self). and i placed an order with ultrarev and they were supposed to include all the wires i needed and the brass fitting but it was not in the box.
Sorry communication>me

I highly suggest getting the aem sensor thats made for that gauge...you can order just that sensor as well as the harness at any aem dealer (p-tuning, dezod, ect).

now there are two ways you can mount the sensor.
1. buy a sandwich adapter (see link below)
2. you can tee off the head (see link below)

if you go the sandwich adapter you will not need another fitting for the sensor, ports are 1/8th npt threads and the sensor is 1/8th npt threads. its a perfect fit.

if you tee off the head your gonna need a "T" obviously. what your gonna need is first a 1/8th BSP to 1/8th npt adapter (what alot of us did a while back was just tap the head with a 1/8th npt tap).

this will allow you to change over to a more common fitting. after that all the rest of the fittings you need are at your local auto parts store..even home depot.

this is the best pic of the fittings i have

Joyride

hahahaha

okay ontopic

for the sandwich adapter what size does one buy?
3/4 UNF-16 - Fits some Nissans, VW, Ford, BMW, Scion, SRT-4, SR20, Porsche, Toyota & Jeep

or

3/4 UNF-16-Long Shaft- Fits Toyota Celica, Scion Tc, & MR2

Both have scion, but im guessing the long shaft one?

got any examples? links? iv had a sandwich adapter (dont even know the brand) that required a larger than stock oil filter (diameter wise), so be careful.

Joyride

Hmm i got it from the link you posted above the prosport

3/4 UNF-16-Long Shaft...its ment for the tc...the other may be used for the 1stgen xb,xa,xd.

I have a friend thats using a sandwich adapter he got from prosport on his tc...it works great.

07tctul

wow thanks for all the info, very helpful! but it looks like i am going to install everything next week. i was looking around for what i could do for a dump tube and i came across this

07tctul
