The search helped with wiring and where to pull power from, but other than a Sandwich plate (which i've always thought were ghetto) where do you guys thread in the sending unit for an electric Oil Psi gauge?
 
I personally put mine in place of the stock sending unit. You should have what looks like a gold bell with a wire going to it on the oil filter housing. Remove it, replace it with the aftermarket sender, and run the wires however the company suggests. The downsides is no more stock pressure gauge, but they as fairly useless anyways.
 
so the gauge sits at 0 after that? Any way to wire the stock wires to the new sender? LOL i hate when stuff doesnt work.... useless or not LOL
 
There are other threaded ports on the oil filter housing, you would just have to find out which ones will work. Unfortunately I have no idea which ones would work, I like to take the easy way out. LOL If your feeding the turbo from the head you could use the plugged oil feed spot on the OFH for an aftermarket sender.
