Ebay Oil Filter Adapter - Anyone Use These?
Just wondering how good the quality is. If you have used (or are currently using) one, please chime in.

Do you feel lucky punk!!!
I installed one some months ago into a 2002 Honda Accord that I make the turbo conversion. No problems since that. I use one plug for the turbo oil feed line and the other one for the mechanical oil pressure gauge.

Thanks,
He has another listing for the same one, so check out his store. I didn't buy his last one.

Thought it wasnt to bad of a deal. 2 Gauges (oil pressure and temp) and a little gauge pod. Anyways ya I will let ya know how it turns out. I hope the gauges arn't pos. Right now I have a broken stock oil pressure, so if it works at all I will be upgrading.

Yea most of those ebay gauges are pos, I bought a megan boost gauge and ran that for a while, it wasn't long before it was reading about 3psi boost with the engine off.

Well I have 14 days to return it. That will include one whole drift weekend. If they last through that then they will be fine. I'm guessing they aren't even 1/2 as good as my prosport boost gauge seeing how they are less then 1/2 the price. haha But they again these dont have peak and warning.... not sure why you would need that for oil pressure and oil temp though....

Not sure why you'd want peak hold and warning on the oil gauges? Warning is nice in case something bad happens while you're not actively scanning the gauges, and peak hold is useful because it's nice to see hot hot things got when you might not have noticed.
Looks like a pretty nice adapter. I have the racing beat one which isn't as pretty but does the job:

One advantage of the RB one is it looks a bit thinner, and oil filter/engine parts/hand clearance is a pain in the *** on the turbos.

Price certainly seems OK, does it include the bottom o-ring?

Yea I picked one of those pedestals up a while back. Good quality I suppose except there was a little bit of loose anodizing or something, like metal flakes. Fixed it with some sandpaper and a dremmel in a couple minutes.
