Which gauges?

Oil Pressure - get this adapter, remove std oil pressure switch and re fit with this and the new sender.

GAUGEPLACE SUBARU IMPREZA OIL PRESSURE GAUGE ADAPTOR - eBay Subaru, Car Parts, Cars, Parts Vehicles (end time 04-Oct-07 11:37:39 BST)

The same company sell the temp adapters for about a tenner too

GAUGEPLACE SUBARU IMPREZA 3rd CYLINDER OIL TEMP ADAPTOR - eBay Subaru, Car Parts, Cars, Parts Vehicles (end time 04-Oct-07 11:37:41 BST)


boost, just tee off a pipe on the inlet manifold after the throttle body.

any others?

P1 Web Owners Club :: Warning, may contain nuts!

There is a guide with pictures in the modification guides.

I have used both adaptors as 500 has linked above.
The 1st link, oil pressure adaptor also has the benefit of fitting your exsisting oil pressure sensor as well as the defi sensor. That way you wont have the oil pressure symbol light up on your dash.

The oil temp adaptor is simple to fit once you have removed the hex bolt from the engine block (cyl 3).

Just make sure you use pft tape on the threads of the adaptors & sensors to avoid oil leaks.
