Default oil pessue gauge

hi there, Well in my experience i went to burton power website.
www.burtonpower.com. I bought the mocal gauge with oil temp and oil pressure. But i imagine you just want the single pressur gauge which they do. I went for capillary, but it upto u what u want.

Fitting. I took off the adapter block which has the union for the turbo oil feed pipe, and on the end of it the threaded hole for the oil pressure switch. I Drilled a hole directly opposite the turbo oil feed, and threaded a die to the size of the adapter that comes with the oil gauge kit.
I cleaned it all out thoroughly and then attached everything to the engine bottom end.

I did this because I am a cheap skate.. But i do believe that Burton sell a t or y piece adapter to avoid any drilling.. just give them a ring they'll help you out. Had a electric oil pressure gauge in my xr3i and the sender unit i used a spare bung in the block.

hope i can help
