Well i just got a set of gauges and i was wondering if any one has done an install of a fuel pressure gauge and a Oil pressure gauge on the ms6. ive searched around and couldnt find any imformation on where to hook up my senders, that came with the gauges. the boost gauge is easy and i got that figured out just having issues with these other too. any help from you guys is much apreciated.
 
ur gonna need the sandwhich plate for the oil pressure gauge..u can order that from protegegarage.com or call them and ask for ken hes awesome!!!

u also may need the oil conversion kit as well if u dont have it already ken has that as well in a whole kit for 99.95 w/ the plate.. i believe

as for fuel pressure i have no idea..
 
Thanks for the help boosted i havnt had the car very long and im used to playing with rotarys so this car is all new to me. thats perfect because i was already in the hunt for the spin filter conversion kit and if i can get it as a kit that will be great. as for the fuel pressure im still stump
 
You don't have to upgrade to the spin-on oil filter conversion.

You need to locate the stock oil pressure sending unit, located by the cartridge housing. Remove this, add a short new oil line to this port (1/4" NPT fitting I believe). On the other end of this new line, add a TEE ... On one port, add the stock sending unit, and on the other port, add the new sending unit. Secure it somewhere where it wont rub against anything.

EDIT: Read post #4. It can be done a bit differently, but this is a good starting point .. http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/showthread.php?t=123667844&highlight=oil+pressure+gauge+install

Fuel pressure may be alot harder to put a gauge on since we run at 1600 PSI at the manifold. A Dashhawk type device will allow you to read this number.
