Oil pressure gauge

[M4Dboost]

Just curious if this will work? branching the stock oil pressure and my secondary pillar mounted one off the same fitting. Havent seen anything about it so I figure here would be a great place for feedback.

That's basically what I did. It's worked fine for over a year now. Like this: http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/articles-engine-fuel/359004-using-t-install-oil-pressure-gauge.html

That will be fine, pressure is still building up inside the t fitting.

Yea it will work just fine. Untill it breaks off and drains all of your oil in a few seconds, now that would suck. Like I said it will work, but I personaly wouldn't do it. I ended up with a NT oil filter housing that has 3 ports. I need one for turbo oil line, one for my aftermarket guage, and one for the stock dummy light, I didn't want a tee.

When I was trying to figure out how to install mine I read a lot of stories of the brass T-adapters and extenders breaking over time from the vibration. I saw enough stories that I knew I wasn't going to risk my expensive engine on it. I ended up just leaving the OEM sensors out (the pressure and dummy light) and replacing them with aftermarket ones (oil pressure and oil temp) directly. I don't ever miss the OEM oil pressure gauge though I wish its dead space could be replaced by something more useful now

I have the dummy light and aftermarket oil gauge on a T.
