SPL parts has one for around 80 I think. I use it and love it. Makes it easier to install feed line and you can easily use an oil temp sensor. You also get to keep the stock oil pressure sensor so the warning light still works.

cool so they really work lol. One more question, when installing it do you have to add some kind of seal to the threads, from the sandwhich plate to the block. If so what do you recommend?

Can you guys post links of where you got it, i.e. summit, spl, greddy

Thanks alot

Don't have one yet, but IMO it's the most elegant way to install oil temp/pressure gauges. I'm going to get the SPL one when I do my gauges this summer.

Look under Hardware and the Fittings & Plumbing.

Was wondering is there any adapter that will feed the turbo after it has been filtered? I just messed up my GT32 and the guys said that something got inside and tore up the bushing. The turbo had 350 miles after being upgraded to a 360 degree bearing. This is on a new engine also that I changed the oil on 3-4 times in 350 miles. So was wondering is there a way to filter the oil before it goes to the turbo. I have the SPL adapter on mine and it worked fine for 5K miles on the stock engine. With the same oiling system it only lasted 350 miles. I guess at least the turbo was damanged and not the engine. I saw on one post about somebody finding something on ebay that was meant to be put on the turbo feed line and had a oil filter that was like a small honda filter.
