Wanted the opinions of those that I trust

I found this at tuner toys:


Its the correct bspt on the ends (for block and stock pressure) and npt on the side(s) (available as a single or dual port) for guage/turbo.

NOW, my opinion is that it would be best to run the single port for pressure gauge and then run a filter adapter ("sandwich adapter") for the turbo feed.
This way each has their own feed, and there is less stress on the two locations.
(yes I know not to run linked sensors straight off the block)

Opinions? ...I like it.
Oh, the fitting is $20 on the dual and $18 on the single.

I like it better than:

i have one of those, and i bought it from tuner toys

i ordered the single, however they sent me a double with a block off plug (not that i'm complaining). Indeed it is a very nice piece. Their company is excellent and i also bought 4 450cc injectors from them which are bitchin as well.

Have you put it on yet?
Did they offer an excuse for sending the double, or do you think the single IS a double, but with an included plug?

i think the single is a double with a plug, unless they were out of stock of just singles and sent that as a replacement. Haven't installed it yet cause i don't have a need to (no gauges to hook up, or turbo for that matter because the rest isn't ready). But it is a nice piece.

how long is it? And how much does it weigh w/ the stock sensor attached to the end?

Id just hate to have it be too much and damage the threads

Craig at Tuner Toys is really one of the best people to deal with. I've talked to him a few times and is very helpful. The products he sells are all quality workmanship and material.

Your other option to eliminate 2 "tee" fittings is to get an oil filter sandwich with a minimum of 2 outlets. AIC and Summit sells it for about $50-60. GReddy makes their version with 3 outlets. That's what I have:
-Turbo oil feed
-Oil pressure gauge
-Oil temp gauge
Not a bad product at all. The only difference between the Tuner Toy version and the filter sandwich version is the obvious filtration. The filter sandwich is also easier to install.

Goodluck Pdiggs.

feh I broke down and bought the other stuff (different fittings and line). Wasnt too much. Im just afraid of the weight being too much (despite what everyone says).

I'll run the filter adapter for the turbo feed...just the senders for pressure off the block.

egt? even on non- turbo cars, an egt gauge can be beneficial for tuning and A/F wihtout a wide band....
