Default oil pressure gauge install?

i know there is a post on the FAQ list before i get shouted at! but all that one explains is how to put one into the stock pressure sender and i have my oil line for my turbo from that so what do i do? do i just T from the oil line to the turbo?

Thanks Matt

You can get the fitting made by Tuner Toys in the for sale section which is very easy or you can just use a T off of your block. Thats the easiest.

you can also buy a greddy oil filter block adapter i think they're like 80 bucks and you can run you oil pressure from that. check out the greddy web site under oil cooler kits.
peace

I just installed my tuner toys fitting and lines, I just ran the stock sensor and the oil line off of it, but I should have waited a couple days, figured out what size the oil psi guage fittings are, and drill and tap the tuner toys for one more outlet. Maybe you could do that? and let me know what size and thread pattern oil pressure guage fittings are while your at it.
