What would be the best way to hook a mechanical boost gauge up to a S5 T2? if you have n e pictures of how yours is hooked up please post them up.
|
I don't have any pics w/ me...but I generally hooked mine up to the UIM right before it went into the LIM..there are a few vac sources on the passenger side of the UIM you should be able to use.
|
I spliced mine off from my BOV I think....then I poked a hole through my firewall and ran it all the way up throug my A-pillar and put the pod there.
|
You can also use existing holes in the firewall on the driver's side as long as you don't crimp the hardline(assuming your using an auto-meter like setup)
Some of the more expensive(IMO nicer) gauge setups use actual vac line for the gauge. The BOV is accurate enough, but most of the time I like to run mine directly off the manifold since i use it directly for tuning in the standalone. |
im just trying not to compromise anything. I have a aftermarket blow off valve and my boost sensor is hooked up as well as the blow off valve to what appears to b the appropriate nipples, but I cant seem to find one that isnt being used. Would some kind of T-fitting work?
|
Ya T fitting will be fine, just make sure it wont pop off under WOT.
|
Ducktape, that **** will never come off, no just kidden. Ill make sure its on there snug, thanx for the info
|
I used the vac nipple on the TB that used to work the secondary double throttle pull-off.
TB front side bottom nipple. Any tap downstream from the throttle plates will work. |
