Default Oil Pressure Gauge questions

Well guys, I'm sorry, but I couldn't find the appropriate forums for this particular question, but I figured since most of you are turboed, you might have an oil pressure gauge and can help me. I am wondering what kind of T-fitting I will need...such as size and that sort of thing. Also, how long should my braided line be, and what size? Thanks for the help guys...by the way, it's on an integra. Thanks again!

I htink just get a 1/8 NPT tee fitting and run your stock oil pressure switch thru it and run the steel lines from it..we used a -4an lines for the turbo oil feed lines...

hope this helps

best thing to do is to this:


If it's an autometer sensor, it will screw into the 1/8" NPT female tee. You don't need the male NPT to female BSP adapter, for some reason the stock oil pressure sensor will screw into the tee tightly with no problems

That's not a good example (the link above).

That set up does not use BSPT threads into the motor and on the factory oil pressure sensor.

Xerxes:
Nice job. Good set up.
