Mechanical oil pressure gauge under hood

[MDavis]

What's the best way to install a oil pressure gauge under hood? I have a digital gauge inside car and would like to put a mechanical gauge in the engine compartment.

Has anyone tapped off the turbo oil feed?
Or should it be attached near the tee off the engine?

I have the dual remote filters and turbo saver. There was a extra NPT plug so I added a mechanical gauge under the hood. Anywhere you can install a T should work.

I never found a T-with the correct threads, but that is where I was going to install it also.

Tap into where the oil pressure sensor is. Put a T there. 1/8 pipe thread.
