OK, I've got it. Some dufus put NA faces on it. What looks like a voltmeter is really your boost guage. This fits your description and this is the location of the boost gauge. I don't know why this didn't come to my mind earlier.



All TIIs have boost gauges, it's the FD that was missing one.



As far as your temp and fuel meters, I think you may just need to chase them down independantly. Fuses, test the senders etc.



Your turbo looks stock.



Good looking FC.



Cheers

Thanks for the help!



Where is the temp sender at? I heard it could be at the bottom of the radiatior or it could be behind the water pump.... Does anyone know where it is?



I went online and bought a service manual but it came on a cd and is hard to find stuff, I also went out and bought a haynes manual, it helps some but doesn't tell me exactly what I need to know...

I think that sender is the one under the oil filter pedestal. The FSM (sect.50, pg.40) says it's on connector EM-33 which shows it there. S/B a yellow wire with a white stripe.



Did you get the FSM on the CD? Is it in *.pdf? I don't find it that hard to use, but maybe because I've been looking at it for years. btw it is available for free download several places.



Cheers

got another question...once i get it back from the shop, i want to upgrade the turbo and intercooler. The question is, which turbo would be a good upgrade? I was looking at a greddy t06...Is that overkill? My main concern is not blowing the motor! (and the freshly rebuilt tranny)
