I've seen people have piped their's into the intercooler pipe but i dont like this route.

I was going to see if the pipe coming off the actuator on the turbo could be used...

Yep, by the fuel pressure regulator. HTH :D

Not on a Fabia vRS

Ah, didn't look. My bad ;)

Intercooler pipe.

By the way, how have you managed to get the boost tube into the cabin??? I've got an idea, but my hands being too big and my unwillingness to rip off the plastic scuttle panel mean I can't get to the bulkhead grommet...

Did you manage to find a way of getting the tubing into the cabin?

cheers

see my reply to your other thread ;)

By the way, on a vRS Fabia, there's bugger all point in a "T" as its not like a pterol one where you can just tap into a pipe. Best way (and is what came with my Allard boost guage) is a grub like screw attachment, that can be drilled straight into the inlet manifold and bolted down with a nut - not going to just pop out any time soon, I tells ya. :D

So...have you managed to find a grommet for the boost tubing into the cabin? Can't see I've tried recently, but any help much appreciated! :thumbup:

I have a bloody great big hole about 15mm in diameter. :D From memory the grommet there isn't that good for squeezing something by - a hose for a boost guage might though as its only tiny. :cool: The grommet the rear washer pipe is down behind the glovebox though.

Most annoying this with mine was it wanted to curl up into a spindle all the time - I couldn't get it to keep straight so I could feed it through without it self retracting whilst I went round to the cabin to pull it through. :rofl:
