    Under STi is a pic of a brass adapter I made for the npt threadline. The adapter will cost around 10.00 at Office Depot. It is sitting on the airbox.


    For the Oil Pressure Line, there is a Oil Galley plug that you can take out with an Allen Screw under the left side of the intercooler inbetween the turbo inlet hose and the inake manifold, that if you do not have a factory one gauge you can get the factory plug for 5.50. Plug the sensor into the adapter, then use a crow foot wrench to tighten to torque.


    Its not too hard, if you want one afternoon I can help, I have the tools here and it will take about 1 1/2 hr. Im off wed,thurs and fridays.



    Also Scoobymods.com may have the infromation.
