You know there is another place to take a feed from without the need of an additional plate? Above the feed that comes out for the turbo is another take off point, just need to undo that and you have another feed

Dunno and dunno. I moved the sensors about so i could use the top feed for one of my gauges. I did need an adaptor which i got from Pirtec for about £4

Why don't you use the take-off for the original pressure gauge?

because fiat gauges and sensors are well crap and un-reliable, I want to use a stepper motor gauge with a high precision sensor

No, I meant why not unscrew the pressure sensor and put the new one in the same hole?

Not to hand no, why not take one out and take it to a local hydralics place and get them to tell you the thread size?
