Currently thinking of getting 2 more gauges to go with the boost gauge already fitted and putting then into a 3 gauge dash pod.

Now, I want to add Oil Temp and Oil pressure to the boost gauge that is already there.

If mechanical and sensors, where do I get the sensors from, and where can I fit them ?

Will I need also to get some sensors, or can I just get electronic gauges and tap into some wires somewhere ?

 

Go for the electronic jobs m8.
They come with sender units etc and it means u don`t have fluid lines comming into the back of u r dash

Why not get in touch with SPA Design who do a complete range with many features. All guages are dual eg. Oil Pressure and Oil Temperature on the same guage, or Fuel Pressure /EGT or almost any combination you can think of. The guages also have the facility to change between a green background or red background and built in over point or under point warning lights which are infinitely variable. Max Peak Recall and so on.

Myself having a boost, oil pressure and EGT gauge think this is the best combination but if you can get an oil pressure/temp gauge then go for that and get it fitted professionally like i did as you shouldnt have any come back on it and if you have problems then you can go back and get it sorted

PS ive had no problems with mine except hitting 1.3bar when its cold outside

 

I fitted the 3 pod guage with oil, temp, pressure and boost.

was easy enough, oil pressure had a t piece which went into the oil pressure switch location and then the switch screwed into the t peice,

The temp sensor needed an adaptor which is basically a new sump plug

no real drama, i used peter holt 'pete@j-spec.co.uk'
at J spec who was exellent and he put loads of effort into finding out the correct threads and adapters for my car which is an import, all feel together

just try not to kill yourself watching the boost guage like i did when i first fitted it!!

 

I wouldn't fit the oil temperature sensor in the sump plug if I was you. As soon as you get on the motorway or track you'll notice the temp drop due to wind chill. There is an oil gallery bung near the turbo, that is a great place to fit the sensor.

Hope this helps, Phill
