hi all,

i am going to move my turbo gauge up next to the driver's side dash!

does the dash unscrew so that you can run the tube down the side to make it neat!

see few other guys have boost gauges up there! just wondered how they got the tube up there!

cheers

chris

anyone?

This any help.

This the route the tubing takes from source (FPR) through bulkhead.

....Through Bulkhead

Nice pictures delcac!, was wondering how to fit a boost gauge, what sort of gauge do i need and does it need any electrical connections, eg for light?

depends on what you want! tons of gauges out there!

i just got 2 pro gauges, one boost and one volt! both light up 7 colours!

yeah you will need a 12 volt connection for the gauge to light!

or in my case i need it for the volt gauge to

thanks very much delac thats spot on!

off to install it now!

any info on where to wire it in so that it dims with the rest of the dash lights?? some good diagrams there delcac cheers,best get off my fanny and sort a gauge out

This particular Gauge has only two wires to wire up, so here goes.

Ooops should be read from right to left.

Sorry for all the questions but what dia vacuum hose do I need and what size tee-piece do I need to tap into the FPR pipe :confused:

Depents what Gauge you get and the connection on the back of it.

but most gauges will come with pipe and t piece, and all connections!

but looking at delac's pic's my boost hose is in a total different bit!

but i a still get the same reading??

well thats all the gauge's in

only 4 hours later

put pic's up later!

Best pice of kit you can have to make sure the engine is healthy and you are getting the correct boost whether its been remapped or not.

Great job on the photos Des, you should go into the Tech Pubs. business. Of course that must be the photos of your old car.
