16V Turbo custom oil tee!
After searching high and low and not finding a suitable tee for my oil sensors, I just went ahead and made one! I'm sure there's one out there, but I couldn't find it! I am using the top connection on the oil filter for the feed to the turbo. Since I didn't want to lose either one of my oil sensors (pressure or temp), I made a tee to connect both of the sensors to the one outlet! Check it out!
BTW, I have finally got all the fittings, adapters, and hoses neccessary to plumb in the turbo. I will make a complete list so that anyone doing this after me won't have such a hard time! Later!

Hey,
Thanks for you reply. Your warning prompted me to do a search, and sure enough, other people also warn of brass tees breaking off. So, I prudently heeded your wise words of wisdom and went out to get some steel. An hour and fifteen minutes later, I had this! Thanks for bringing that up! Later!

Daniel forgot to mention that he has a very large machine shop at his disposal. He made a crank pulley for my supercharger and sent me a CAD design to show me before told the machine to make it. He is obliviously having too much fun with this project.

Yep, that's right, Jim! I also just got done making the throttle linkage for my custom-made individual throttle bodies. It works with the totally stock throttle cable! I also made a TPS bracket this week, too. I'll try and post pics of my intake soon!! The problem with this custom work is that it makes the project take forever!
I naturally have drawings of every single custom part I made, and that will greatly help with selling the car, if I ever want to. Take care!
