I've just taken delivery of oil temp and oil pressure gauges. They both have senders (sensors) with them.

 

My question is, are all oil pressure sendors the same, i.e. can I replace the one on the car with the new one and wire both gauges (new one and OEM one on the dash) into it or do I have to have both senders installed?

 

Thanks guys, Al.

 

P.S. I got a boost gauge as well so I can finally tell what boost I'm running :hyper: . Is there a rough guide to expected BHP vs. boost pressure?

 

Sorry, one last question, I also got a set of the same gauges for my brother who has an S14a, do these have oil pressure senders as standard or does he have to get the sump drilled and tapped?

Gauges and senders are a matched pair, the chance of the gauge working correctly with the original sender is slim. they will work but read wrong.
