Sump end of filter, is it the brass section or something? Memory is a bit hazy from one of the DIY days when we fitted my Earl's kit.

A manual boost gauge you can get away with pretty much anything. But anything else using decent gauges are 10x better than china/ebay junk.

In other cars I had one or 2 cheap china gauges, at about $100 each new, thought they were ok. Then bought a whole set of Greddy white face gauges and they looked a bit more plain (no smoked face or fancy start up) but were way more consistant and looked more purposeful.

I then got my hands on some Genuine defis and compared to knock offs they are super expensive, but so much better qauity and finish. I managed to get my hands on a discontinued defi link display, which can show all the readings alone, 2 at a time or scrolling through. Though I perfer a traditional needle boost gauge that is a defi on the pillar. It is great as they both have a warn function with a loud alarm for and display changes along with red light to get your attention.

I had a Yashio factory digital water temp gauge floating around so thatdoes water, the link does oil press/temp and gauge for boost. I could get some more sensors for the link for fuel pressure ect, but not really needed for me

The XR6 im going to run a Blitz manual boost gauge I picked up at wreckers and a 52mm gauge/contoller for rear air assist bags as it is a neat way to controll all that

Yeah I'd go cobalts only because they match the cluster so nicely.
