So i'm thinking of getting this one. I know this is a good brand, and it'll hold up to the psi and hp. Let me know.

Oil restrictor - 3an Adaptor - Oil take off adaptor doesnt your oil feed line have a male end on it?, i thought mine did, if so...you can get rid of the -3an adapter, and just spin the oil restrictor around and go right into the T. I dont know what your feed line looks like though. --------------------  |

you should not be using teflon tape on any of the AN fittings.
only the NPT fittings should get it. AN fittings are flared to seal tight. -------------------- Former Team 5SFTE pro member ;)

pull off the drivers side wheel and fender plastic and you'll see some wires that run into the passenger compartment from the engine bay. that's the route I followed.

so one thing i have to figure out is, where to put my oil temp sensor. My oil pressure sensor is on the tunertoyz t. any ideas where to put the other? the only other way i can think of is to put on a sandwhich plate on the oil filter, so i can go in that way... tho i do not want to.
other question is relative to my water temp gauge. does anybody know the diamater for the INNER side of the radiator hose? thanks in advance! -------------------- You say you don't understand how we go dumb, but have you ever been where i'm from?

So FYI, i found out that for the inner side of the radiator hose is 32 mm. So now i'm gonna get a tap-in for that sensor.

i believe the sensor is 1/8 NPT. I looked at the oil temp sensor and the h20 sensor side by side as well. they appear to be the same thing. i used prosport premium gauges, and they sell adaptors with 1/8 NPT sensor threading as well to go along with the h20 sensor. it's $28 for the 32 mm adaptor. my oil pressure sensor is premium as well, it's a lot more sleak and james bondish to me lol. i'll put more pix up later of it. the sender is 1/8 NPT as well for that one too. it screws jsut fine into the Tuner Toyz fitting.
also, got my oil feed line (yay). both ends are female. 1 is 90 degree and 1 is straight. -------------------- You say you don't understand how we go dumb, but have you ever been where i'm from?

you could try to get another one of those brass Tees from monument like I gave you. they are like 3 or 4 dollars. then cut off the nipple that sticks out and get a 1/8" NPT tap and see if you can put threads in that and then just tee into one of the turbo coolant lines. and then you can just thread your fitting into that. cause I really don't understand how you are supposed to tap into the big radiator hose.

That coolent settup is nice and all but you could get the same settup with a T fitting (All 3 sides female npt) 2 3/8's barb hose fittings with male ends. Shouldnt cost more then $5 in parts from a plumbing store
