oil sandwich adapter
I was wondering what oil sandwich adapter will let me hook up my oil pressure gauge and also my oil feed line so i dont have to put a t fitting in my block? i can't seem to find one that does both. thanks a lot, i have a 98 civic with a b16a2 block in it and i will be going turbo as soon as i get the rest of my parts.

Re: oil sandwich adapter (aryiman98civic)
I got this off egay, it has two 1/8 npt ports (on bottom) so you can run two feeds off of it.
The only thing you would have to do is block off the two -8an holes. I have an oil cooler so it comes off of those.

My Greddy sandwich lets me have both fittings. I've looked at the golden eagle, and that one will do it too.
Matter of fact, I think both Greddy and Golden Eagle have 3 ports.

Unless they have changed it the golden eagle only has 2 port

does there have to be a specific type of port to run the feed line as well?</TD></TR></TABLE>
1/8th npt normal fittings go on the adapter... 1 for your turbo, 1 for your gauge, 1 for your stock oil pressure sensor..

Re: (Crab-Cakes)
crabcakes, yes you can........BUT......
IF you tee oil pressure gauge and turbo feed together, the turbo will for a fact, cause a lower pressure reading than the motor is actually seeing. About 20-30 psi difference!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have found this out for fact recently as I thought this was happening so I ran oil feed seperately.

You don't want to T anything with the oil feed.
Even if you get an oil sandwitch with one port, just use that one port for the oil feed, and then pull the stock pressure sensure out of the block, and run a line with a T to the stock sensor, and the pressure sending unit for the guage.

I'd take that over my GReddy. GReddy comes in Jap and all the fittings are BSPT, not NPT, which made findng the fittings I needed a pita.
