    Of course it does they originate on rs2
    You need a take off in block to connect the pipe to.
    Or has my memory failed and mk1 rs was electric ? Either way it's not hard as it's still standard

    Yea that is correct, you need an oil capillary tube up to the oil pressure gauge from the block. Mine was always plumbed into the main gallery with a pipe to an additional oil pressure gauge and an oil pressure switch aswell.
    No It's not electric.
