Default MFactory Oil Block Adapter

Has anyone used one of these on an H22 Turbo?

I've had an oil "T" fitting break on me once already from the vibrations of having an oil feedline (for the turbo) and an electric oil sending unit for an oil pressure gauge hooked up together inline. Having an oil block adapter would make things much more stable, but I've been told they don't work very well.

Can anyone give me any reviews on this product?

Thanks.

I'm using the Glowshift one and it works great. The only time I had a problem with it was when I forgot to put teflon tape on the threads and it leaked like a **** lol. I'm just running it for oil pressure

I'd be hooking up the turbo's oil feed line + oil pressure sender unit + filter (d'uh).

I'm just worried about it leaking or worse (breaking) from heat/vibration. Then again, I know MFactory makes good products, hence why I'd like some feedback on this specific product.

I have a friend with a 1994 Prelude S AT that I installed the GlowShift Gauges oil filter sandwich adapter on for his oil press and oil temp gauges. It leaked like a *****. I put teflon tape on the fittings/plugs and re-installed again. It STILL leaks like a *****. I was wanting to get one of these for my 2000 SH, but I am afraid that it will leak like a **** too.
