Default Defi Gauge Fitting

Hope to collect some defi's tomorrow, but have some questions,

Where do the Oil Temp, Oil Pressure and Boost hoses go on the engine? or where is the best place to fit them?

Thanks

Boost - Tee into the balance pipe going to the Dump Valve

Oil Pressure - remove OE Oil Pressure Sensor (only 7psi anyway) from under Altenator

Oil Temp - remove Blanking Plug above Cyl#3 and install using an adaptor

As WUZ has said. If you want to retain the OE oil pressure switch, you need a long adaptor. Ebay, enter Impreza oil pressure sender fitting kit. The adaptor for the oil temp comes with some kits, or is available separate.

You need a long decent quality 8mm hex key to remove the blanking plate over cyl 3, which is rear, driver's side.

On some cars there is an unused nipple on top of the manifold that can be used for the boost gauge.
