glowshift seems to be ok compared to most CDM stuff. a friend of mine has some of their gauges and they work ok. they feel cheap, but they seem to indicate properly.

im a big fan of the sandwich plate even though i dont have one right now. it just seems to make a cleaner, more reliable setup. and you have more places to hook things up. even though i have an oil pressure gauge, i like to have my stock oil light too

if you are running as much boost as you wanted, then i would just spend the money and get a good one.
i'm running a crappy sandwich and it works great. i've heard a bunch of good reviews on the glowshift one, but what ever you do don't try to use the fittings or any kind of tee in the oil pressure sensor unless you get rid of the stock oil cooler.
you can't get the fitting in to the block with the oil cooler in, it's in the way. unless the block is out of the car, then just grab the tuner toy fitting.
i love my sandwich, works so good and doesn't leak. i got it for free from some guy i met on a non automotive forum. didn't even know he was into hondas.
he had an ls-v that he used the sandwich on.

sweet. yea im giong to have the block out of the car cause im building my zc up pretty good. id defenately go with the tunertoy T but the idea of a T in the block gets shady, i have never seen the tunertoy one installed so it still seems kinda iffy. i think ill go with that sandwhich, and see what happens.

oh yea, and thanks for all the help everyone i appreciate it

I bought that exact sandwich and it leaked like no other. It all comes down to those shatty rubber rings. Ive had excellent luck with one from http://www.teammfactory.com/
