Default turbo gauges

well i bought a turbo car not knowing anything about turbo cars. (dumb of me but oh well i got it already). My question is how do i get my gauges to work properly, they seem to not work. I got the boost to work. motor is a b16a2
1. the oil pressure gauge. I have the gauge and there is two 4 wires. Two wire was to light the gauge up and the other two im amusing has something to do with the oil meter. So do i hook those up to my oil pressure switch wire? or is there something i have to buy?
2. air/fuel gauge. What do i do for this to work? Connect to the 02 sensor? or I have to buy something too.

Nope, the factory oil pressure switch only turns the dummy light on if you are less than 4 psi. You need an electric oil pressure sender. Autometer and other companies sell them, you can tee off your oil pressure switch and run the two wires from the sender to the gauge.
