Theres a couple of things I need to sort before my car goes off for the conversion.

Need to find somewhere that does decent prices on them, but I also need to find some that will come with everything needed to fit!

Need -

Boost Gauge
Oil Temp
Oil pressure

And if anyone knows where to get the B-biller pod gauges from that would also be helpfull cheers.

On my 20XE Corsa B I had racetech gauges which did the job and were tasteful to an extent. Here is Oil Pressure and Oil Temp mounted:



For every gauge you will need a sender unit which can make things expensive, I got mine from these guys I think: http://www.raceparts.co.uk/racetech/instruments.htm

Get electric gauges, mechanic ones dont work off a sender IIRC so they involve alot more pipes and stuff.

you need:

Oil Pressure Gauge
0-8 BAR
Oil Temperature Gauge
0-150 C
Boost Gauge
-1 / +2.5 Bar

then following this thread:

http://www.migweb.co.uk/forums/engines-transmission/171368-xe-let-oil-pressure-temp-senders-what-why-how-where.html

That will tell you where you can put the senders.

Get racetech's number from:

http://www.raceparts.co.uk/info/contact.htm

Ask for prices on all the gauges and then tell him you need senders for all, the bolt fitment for the block is M14.

On the site they have the M14 fitment for temperature gauage but not M14 for pressure only M10?

And what senders do you need for a boost gauge?

http://xyberautos.com/ do a turbo conversion set, for £100, granted ul need a silicon hose for boost gauge and correct sandwhich plate for your motor but for the money, these are really smart

iv just bought 5 for the impreza, type in 'prosport stepper gauges' on youtube to see what they look like

I told them I needed M14 and I think they sold me a little step up adapter so one end was M10 where the sender bolted into and the other end was M14

a 3/5mm silicon hose from the engine bay (mines on BOV) to the back of the gauge

sandwhich plate - goes between oil filter and block , allows you to plug in 2 adaptors for pressure and temp senders to gauge

or you can get an adaptor from origal oil pressure switch which goes to the gauge from gaugeplace.com

That looks V nice although aren't the air/fuel ones not meant to be v accurate, a proper wideband controller (I think thats what they are called)would be better?

Ill let you know about the double pod holder as I think im gonna try and find a 3 if I can figure out what I need to buy to put in them
