Okay now I got it. One problem I ran into last night when trying to install the oil feel line, I was using the picture that iFly87 posted as a reference, and I cant find that spot on the back of my engine. And what is that rubber ball thing? Does anyone have any more pictures with more detail?

Okay I was just under the car, and from that view, it is to the left of the oil filter. And the problem is that i cant reach it with any tool. everything is like cramed up in there, theres hardly any space to fit my hand. am i supposed to unscrew it or pull the rubber off, or what? a good write up on the oil feed would be perfect!

Its not that hard man. Just crawl under there and pull of the oil filter, and its above the oil filter, pull the electrical plug off it and you can even unscrew it with a pair of channel locks.

That rubber thing is just a boot over the sensor, pull that boot up a lil so you can get a wrench on there, not exactly sure on the size but its not that hard, just be real carefull when you put the new fitting in there, they have been known to break if you overtighten them.
some people do it one way some do it the other, as long as you have your boost guage tapped into your IM it shouldnt make any difference where the wastegate boost source is.

ok thanks, you guys are great. I will give it another shot and see if i can get it. this is the ONLY thing that is keeping me from driving. also, just curious, is there anyother place where I can install the oil feed? or is the the one and only location that the turbo must get its oil from? and i did not know that the boost gauge must be connected to the intake manifold. i was going to connect mine to the wastegate lol. i will post the pics for you guys to see it this week

boost gauge should be from a vacuum source on the mani. the wastegate should have its own line that is as short as possible to prevent boost spike-- that is why people put a vacuum nipple on their compressor, because it has the fastest response to the wastegate. the boost gauge should be from the manifold along with the bov to tell you exactly how much psi you are getting into your engine

For the vaccum source in the manifold I used the nipple that goes to the stock PCV valve and Y'ed it to run my boost guage, BOV, and pcv setup. Then the wastegate has a vaccum hose going to my MBC, and from there the compressor housing. If you still want some pics let me know I will get off my lazy *** and snap some.
Edit: Some people tap into the brake booster line for guages or bov, dont do that.
