i got one. it seems to be accurate for oil temp. waiting to get an oil pressure gauge/sensor so i haven't been able to test that yet. no problems with the oil filter either.

Be forwarned, DO NOT use the GReddy block adapter if you have any uneven roads! That little mistake cost me $750 to replace the filter housing.

Ahhh, well. I guess that could happen. I havent really noticed where it would sit on a Subie. On my celica it had a skid plate over it so it was somewhat protected. Guess you just have to watch out for big **** potholes.

That's BS. STi's in japan use the same filter adapter for the optional Genome gauges. You can rip off even a stock filter on a stock car. Even with the adapter, the header hands lower than the filter.
Maybe EVO's are different.

I had one when I had gauges on my STi...worked great...worth every penny. Some guy on the "other" site told me that it doesn't work for Subarus or Mitsus...loser...

Thanks guys
This weekend I should have some time to look under the car...I'll keep u all posted.
I think I agree with Alex...you can rip anything off a car if you hit it just right.
