I tee'd it off the back of the block where the stock oil pressure sender is with a tuner toys dual outlet block fitting. The mech gauge comes with a 1/8 fitting that works perfect on the fitting. Not sure if there's an easier way but I did it this way cuz I'm running my oils lines for my turbo from here anyways. But this will work nonetheless.

I have one. HIGHLY recommended. Either that thing or get one of those oil filter adapters. Do it the right way.
