	ah, yes, forgot about you already have a feed for the turbo off that! maybe you can drill and tap a thread into the currant one, like shown in the pic?

	Ooooo, now we're cooking.... its already space out for the turbo oil feed, i guess spacing it out further wont do the pressure switch any harm?

	as long as the temp sensor fits in the hole, yes :)

	lol, i honestly cant be done with oil pissing everywhere this time of a sunday evening... what would i do with it? fit something like: http://www.merlinmotorsport.co.uk/p3653/T-PIECE-1/2-UNF/product_info.html but obviously the correct thread etc?

	take your oil switch out and check :0 2 min job, and il sure you know where it is :)
spikedjack	posted on 20th Sep 09 at 18:39
	That would be an idea warren, any idea what fitting it is? if you could find me one, there's a beer in it for you :)
Warren G	posted on 20th Sep 09 at 18:38
	you could get a oil pressure/temp gauge to fit where the pressure switch is?

	havent seen his new set up, with the oil cooler and remote filter yet but previouly the sandwich plate (just a sandwich plate for gauges) had 6 holes to fit sensors although, i now gert what your trying to say, you have a oil cooler take off, and can fit a gauge plate!

	for oil pressure id just use a sender from a nova/calibra models that came with the oil pressure gauge as theres 2 terminals on it 1 for the warning light and the other for the gauge as for oil temp ive no idea, i did see one that had the sump drill and a bolt welded on and the sender just bolted in but never did like the idea myself

	what his oil cooler sandwich plate? is it still thermostatic like mine?
Warren G	posted on 20th Sep 09 at 18:32
	nathans one has 6 fixing places jack....

	Already have a sandwich plate for my oil cooler and another one would make the oil filter foul something important. Dont really fancy remote filter heading the engine as its a massive faf and expense. How else could i get readings? if i T piece my oil cooler lines, the readings will only work when the thermostatic sandwich plate is open, which is ok i guess however a bit of a bodge... Any ideas?
