not hard, just T it on the coolant lines going to the throttle body.. i dont know how different are the xb2 setup but as soon as you find the coolant lines to tap, you're good

Alright, so the kit comes with the adapter/port for the oil pressure gauge?

it will come with a 1/8 npt fitting for you to tap the oil feed line and use the oem oil pressure gauge.. you will need a 1/8 npt fitting that you can buy in homedepot or lowes or hardware store so you will have an extra port for the gauge.. bring the fitting that comes with the kit to make sure you get the right thread size and the right female to female adapter for the two female npt fitting

Recent PIC with better oil feed line, perfect fit no bends!





Scangauge and Broadway mirror FTW!

Mr_Meaty

NICE! How did you wire your scangauge up there?

Oh, and your new feed line looks like it may be TOO tight? Maybe it's just me...

i just got my oil feed line in the mail yesterday from Todd, i think its too short

the actual steel braided wire is 11 inches long, and the whole unit from end to end is about 14 inches

is this right?

it seems too short

Mr_Meaty

seems right to me.

tC_2NeR

I bought a scangauge mount for the rear view mirror and just tucked the wires under the panel, that thing easily comes off then routed the wire going to were the gauges are. And the oil feed is just a perfect fit just a lil bend on the turbo side, no biggy just a normal bend the line could take and still has a lil play for movements

Mr_Meaty

as long as you got some play...and yeah, I think mine was about a foot long.
