No. You should not measure your oil pressure or temperature from a sandwich adapter anyway. Oil temperature should be measured in the pan, so you know what the pump is picking up. Oil pressure should be monitored at the factory oil pressure switch.

It shouldn't be dead, but if anything you can call them up and order them (assuming they are ready, last time I stop by a couple of weeks ago, they had some brackets ready)

If you are not a performance-minded driver, I could see this not being necessary. A stock Fit daily driven will be fine. But if you are spirited performance driver and you want the best performance, this is a great addition for engine safety and reliability. Oil cooling is typically overlooked until something goes wrong, and then it is too late. You want to keep your oil in a safe temperature zone for proper engine lubrication and protection. Oil breakdown is not a good thing. With healthy oil, engine performance will be more consistent.

Sorry guys, the holiday hit us quick! These oil cooler kits should be ready to ship next week. I will get Marketing to take some pictures of the entire system in the photo booth next week.

Have a safe New Years!

The oil cooler is an independent product, so it will work on N/A, Turbo, SC...

Wytt is correct. It is an independent product, not associated with the supercharger kit. It is compatible with NA, Supercharger, Turbo, Nitrous, etc.

Not dead... I will get it up soon. My HD died with the pictures I had. New HD will be in later this week, and I will load my backups onto my computer. I THINK I backed up the pictures.

Sorry guys!
