Without being cheeky try a search on Defi wiring. You haven't said what gauges he wants to fit.
Assuming boost pressure is one tap into one of the take-offs on the inlet manifold. The oil temp sensor can be fitted in place of a plug on top of cylinder #3. The oil pressure sensor replaces the OEM sensor underneath the alternator. Water temperature requires custom mounting somewhere (i got a hose adaptor from Demon Tweeks and fitted is in the top rad hose). Exhaust Gas Temperature obviously needs to go in the up-pipe if possible. I ran all the wiring for mine through the A/C port in the bulkhead on the passenger side.
I wiried the control unit into the wiring from my stereo. If the gauges are new all the wiring diagrams are there. If they're second hand they're on the Defi website.
