JUST FOR REFERENCE:

Defi pressure gauges use a BSPT thread type.
So if you're wiring up a Defi pressure gauge, you'll need a tee adapter.

BSPT Male = into engine
BSPT Female = oem pressure switch
BSPT Female = Defi gauge sending unit

Additionally... this part is NOT AVAILABLE in any country by any manufacturer.

However, there is a BSPT x BSPT x NPT adapter available.

THEREFORE, we must use:
  • BSPT Male = into engine
  • BSPT Female = oem pressure switch
  • NPT Female = Defi gauge sending unit with an separate adapter from the BSPT Defi sending unit to the NPT threads of the adapter.

Please don't flame me. I thought gtm had what you're looking for. I remember seeing an adapter on their website some time ago.

So I am going to make a custom manifold for this as my current setup of adapters is touching the sway bar.... What I am thinking is a block of aluminum with the following for ports, in a remote spot :

1/8" BPST female port, will have a flexible braided line from manifold to engine
1/8" BPST female port, for the OEM pressure sensor
1/8" BPST female port, for the Defi racer pressure sensor

Does this sound like the correct thread sizes? Just want to be sure before I buy a tap and drill holes.

Thank you

Oil Pressure Sensor Adapter, 1/8" BSPT - Engine - Autotech Motoring

Anyone know the quality difference between the 2? One is almost 2x more expensive. Also can these adapters fit without hitting the sway bars especially if you got thicker aftermarket sways?
