clearance? there should be...
the oil pressure sensor (stock one) is taken out, and you add something that has a hole in it to direct oil to the turbo.inbetween the pressure sensor and the block.. if you get a metal t-fitting, and add that to about 2-3 inches of extra ss line, you should be fine, imo...
kinda like turbo--->ss line to pressure sensor--->extra t---->(to guage)--->extra cuple inches of ss line--->to the sandwiched new fitting that goes between the block and the pressure sensor...
good luck bro...

There is not much room to add another T in addition to HRC's oil feed line T on the stock sending unit. I tried to add a little extension to the HRC T, but I had obstructions. You may be able to do it, but if you are successful, you will need to angle the T in an odd way. Go under the car and measure how much lee-way you have after the HRC T. Good luck.

You may have enough room to do this. Put in the HRC Tee the normal way, the put in a second tee to where the stock sensor would go, then point the second tee "middle" tee downward, and then connect the stock sensor to that, so that its pointing downward. Then you have the one opening left, that will be aiming right at the firewall. There should be enough room to fit a gauge fitting on there.
