the factory oil filter housing assembly has 2x grub screws in it.
just remove them and then use one of those holes for oil pressure and/or temp.
you will need to heat them with a flame torch to break the loctite on them.
thats where i am running my oil temp

not sure about the evo 9, but a sandwich plate on mine would put the filter too low to the ground...



you can see my FP oil line adapter that i've taped over.
you can just see the end of the bosch fluid temp sensor on the left of it

Don't use those. Go to draft42designs and get the adapter that goes into the oil filter housing. ...or AMS and get their extended line.

the ams line is a direct fitting to that plug above the housing correct.
