#2 goes on the oil filter housing I believe? For the pressure sensor? Look on your oil filter housing and see if you have a sensor with a blade sticking out that this connects to. Another pic of the front of the plug would help. Im pretty sure thats where it goes but another person may chime in? Sorry if I misinformed you but that is my guess sitting here at work and not being able to reference my vehicle.

Also a sensor on you thermostat housing I believe also has a blade connection, maybe the coolant temp sensor?
 
That's what I thought but I looked and there is already one near the oil filter....
 
Number 2 IS the oil filter pressure sending unit plug. There is no other plug under the hood like that. Number one looks like the boost control solenoid plug.
 
I thought the tstat housing had a blade sensor for the gauge?

It does for the temp gauge, but it looks absolutely nothing like that and wouldn't be covered in oil like the one in the picture.

Ok guys he said passenger side of the engine bay. Oil filter housing is on her driver side. It looks like #2 is one the goes by the throttle body. Im not sure about #1
 
I totally F'd up guys. I meant drivers side. Damn DSM's and there wiring connectors and harness' have me all backwards (at least thats what Ill blame it on)

Well when you know the engine bay as well as i do than you know that there are NO OTHER plugs like number 2 in the entire engine bay, so it has to be to the oil sending unit regardless of where the original poster says that it is. As for the throttle body, what are you talking about, there is nothing on the throttle body that looks remotely close to that on a 2g. A 1g has a single spade female connector that hooks to the closed throttle switch, but it looks nothing like the number 2 plug.
 
The oil connector is already on. Cant find these 2 still. There is no cat on this car BTW. You think they went to that?
