Talking about ebay, DO NOT GET THE NGK ILFR7H spark plugs! They're really good looking fakes and I have been using them for autox for 6years with no problems. On track, I got 3 with melted ground electrode tips and 2 cracked ceramic insulators. I bet ARP studs are easy faker targets also

I get mine on Amazon but only because my local part stores seem to be inept at ordering any.

Not sure if amazon cracked down since most of the guys doing the expose on youtube bought from amazon
This is fake https://www.ebay.com/itm/32347796169...IAAMXQgb1RS-0G
The only signs i know are the <TSE> logo and some web address missing on the box.
Yeah Advanced Auto Parts carry them, 1 set in stock somewhere but I cant figure out home delivery. I just ordered from Autozone online, free 2day shipping

Im not sure about your application and its limitations but i would imagine all youd need is something like this:

https://www.aemelectronics.com/produ...ontent-sensors

https://www.msel.co.nz/Continental-E...l-Sensor-Short

You then just hook them up to an AVI input on the ecu and calibrate the fuel map to suit. But im not sure what your specific requirements would be with the ecu ur using. dont see much point in the gauge if the ecu is controlling the fuel map

Shameless plug here, I make kits that mount the sensor on the firewall. Completely plug n play with the stock fuel return line. Just have to run a new soft hose from the regulator to the sensor and then the factory soft hose meets right up to it. Feel free to PM me if you're interested.

FWIW if you don't need a gauge, it's not super expensive. The sensor is a generic Continental sensor that you can get for ~$40. Wiring it up is fairly simple too.

The Evo dynamics kit complete. You just have to wire it and mount the sensor.

what's the best way to find a leak under the car?

the car leaves a small puddle around the pass side control arm after every drive. it's driving me nuts. i've looked under the car and it's difficult to tell where it's coming from, but i've tightened the drain plug, oil filter, oil cooler lines and it continues to happen, anywhere else to check?

Put UV dye in the oil and get a UV light. Makes it super easy to find it.

If the area is dirty it’s easiest to find leaks when surfaces are clear of grime. When fluids come down off suspension/steering components it can throw you off. Has to be safe to say it’s coming from somewhere near the front cover?
