Hi I recently bought a Mk3 Ibiza Cupra and it has a single pod piller with a boost gauge, however it is quite highly tuned and would like to fit oil pressure and temperature gauges how to i go about doing this? and where can i get the 3 pod pillar, gauges and parts?

thanks

They don't do a 3 you can buy a Cupra r gauge holder that goes In the centre console as it holds 2 gauges about £10 from the dealer

I also think you should go for the Cupra R double gauge holder. I have a dual gauge Pillar Pod available though if you want that

Oil temp is measured from the oil filter housing, there is a blanking plate that is removed just above the OEM oil cooler.

Oil pressure should be monitored by the ECU as standard and will throw a light up on the dash should the pressure fall below the threshold.

Not great advice.

Oil light is too late.

Take the pressure from the oil filter and temp from the sump.

I run boost, AFR, oil temp and oil pressure gauges, greddy EBC and a scangauge 2. 2 in a nomad gauge pod and 2 in a cupra r pod.
