I used one of the sandwich plates on the oil filter that someone else on here recommended a while back |

On my oil feed the feed to the turbo is off a banjo fitting, with a male that sticks through it. Then the T piece screws onto this, leaving one port for gauge and one port for switch.

I always take the oil feed for the turbo from the top of the filter head - drill, tap and screw in a male quick release coupling - attach the female to the turbo pipe - fresh filtered oil! (never cooked the turbo bearings in 5 years of racing!) Use the block take-off for the pressure gauge and add a T-piece if you want a light as well. Philtune. |

Also on another note, my fuel pump runs off the oil pressure switch (metro), therefore i don't have a light, how do you get round this? run 2 switches? i cant tap into the metro switch as the light would be on all the time i have pressure. Thanks |

I took my car to Beechgrove engineering where it got measured up for the braided turbo feed pipe and a braided oil pressure gauge sence line got all the fittings and seals with the unions of my choice.
