Default Oil Pressure Gauge Sender Unit Info..

Hi Guys,

I'm about to purchase an Oil Pressure gauge (electrical) + sender unit but I need some questions answered.

Basically i've been asked:
Oil pressure sender - you need to tell us what full scale pressure and thread fitting you require.
any ideas?

Cheers,
Simon.

Not sure on the thread but think it is 1/8 NPT. Cold on thick oil the pressure can be 120 psi even at modest revs. Maybe 110psi on lighter oil. That said the guage on my WRX only reads to 100psi and settles ok in the 80s when hot on thin oil.
