Learn how to install the SOS (Science of Speed) Oil Pressure Sensor Upgrade on your 1991-1999 Acura/Honda NSX. The OEM engine mounted oil pressure sensor is prone to fail due to engine vibrations so SOS created a remotely mounted oil pressure sensor upgrade kit that mounts the sensor to the firewall to eliminate damage from engine vibration. If you have oil leaking from the inside of the rubber mushroom-shaped cover, then chances are you can use this upgrade.
