Boost and oil pressure are usually ideal for the A pillar. You might want to use something other than a tacho now because it'll be going in the pod - maybe exhaust temp?

Where can I get a sandwich plate for under the oil filter to stick the oil temp and pressure sensor in too and do I need I for water temp or where do I put it.
By the way there auto gauge gauge's I know there not the best but they where for free so hay.

Thanks.

seven hills motorsport connections had them for ~$50, but you had to drill and tap them yourself with correct thread

perfectrun.com.au, have the greddy remote oil kit for around $220 to your door, with 1/8pt thread i believe for oil temp and pressure

on another note, what are peoples thoughts on running oil pressure at the sandwich plate, or running them where the stock oil pressure sensor/switch is ?
