Aftermarket Gauges, Fuel, oil

[jaffaz32]

I have done some searching can't really find the answers i need.

My tuner wants me to get fitted Aftermarket oil and fuel pressure gauges.

Keeping in mind i have the Sos external oil cooler what is the max oil pressure the Nsx should see? the reason i ask is because i have the option of 100 psi and 150 psi gauges. Ok if in doubt get the 150 psi however i would prefer the 100psi gauge if i had the option.

Also i need safety perimeters, what is the least amount and max amount of pressure to see on both the gauges? I mean where would it start to be dangerous? or caution?


where can you fit the sensors? where is the best place?

How about the sandwich plate on the oil cooler that comes with the Sos kit? is this a good place for a gauge? accurate?

and the Fuel? i heard you can put a gauge on top of the fuel filter without any mods is this the case? if not where is the best place to mount the sensor and how?


Thanks.

Anyone?

Got itchy fingers to order some new parts.

this thread particular

I just did the conversion and here is what I found. 1 KG/cm2 = 14.21 LB/in2

So our gauge would be:
LB/in2 --- KG/cm2

113.68 --- 8
93.786 --- (6.6)
75.313 --- (5.3)
56.84 --- 4
39.946 --- (2.6)
18.47 --- (1.3)
0 --- 0

Values in () are only shown as a Dashed Line on the oil pressure gauge.

Would that suggest the highest reading 8 is equal to 113.68 psi so in that case going back to my original question i would need a gauge that reads higher than 100 psi i.e. 150 psi? Correct?

Even though the guage shows higher, the max psi in the NSX is around 90. Thus, a 100 psi guage should be fine.
