Best place to get Defi Gauges.. and install hints..

I have finally decided to go with 5 Defi BF Gauges.. Might sound little crazy.. but I think they are pretty neat.. ever since I saw them two years ago..

Anyhow, I'm looking for a place to get Boost, EGT, Oil pres., Fuel Pres. and water.. and the link to connect all.

So, far best is 1214 shipped.. wondering if any of you know of a better place.. Also, any hints on hooking up pressure sensors for the oil and fuel?? Do I need special adaptors?? does it come with them or do I buy seperately.

Thanks!

PHIL

For the oil, it's easiest just to get the oil filter sandwich adapter. For water, I bought a water temp hose adapter and cut the radiator hose in half and put it between the two hoses. The fuel pressure however is a bit more tricky. If you have steel braided lines/AN fittings, it's pretty easy, but if not, you have to get more "creative".

GReddy Adapter

However, it does make changing the oil filter more of a pain.

I use a fram ph6607(I think that's the part number). It's the only real oil filter we can get here in Japan Since I went Cosmo 13B though, I've had no problems whatsoever changing my oil filter.

Thanks for that info.. I figure added height will make it difficult..

Do you know any other options??
