Default alternative oil source for supercharger..

Ive been reading up on this topic and i've read that some have used a sandwich type adaptor (ie greddy, etc) for additional guages like oil pressure, etc... Has any1 used this as a source for a supercharger though? I would think this would be a sturdier/safer source? or is there not enough oil pressure when using this location?

Not sure why you'd want to, considering (at least for the comptech kit) you have to install the bracket/feed at the vtec solenoid anyways in order to mount the blower.

Also depending on the sandwich plate used, you could potentially be sending oil to the charger before it goes through the oil filter.

i did not know that.. reason y i was thinking of it is that it might b easier, plus sturdier.. (have seen other turbo hondas bust their oil lines and have oil leaks everywhere..)... i'm gettin the vortech but i'm assuming its the same way, gotta check the instructions...

I think you're probably refering to cases where people have T'd off the oil pressure sensor port. There's no reason (other than maybe to fit a pressure sensor) that you'd want/need to do that w/ a sc setup.
