Ok so I got a sandwich adapter for the oil filter, moved all the sensors to the right places, etc. I have the "live unit" tied up by the ECU. What would be the best place to tap into for power for it? The guy in the other thread powered his gauges from inside the car, but I'd rather just power it from the engine bay fuse box if I can.

you can grab constant power from the under-hood fuse box, but not ignition switched power.
