Where is the Rb boost guage suposed to connect? I tried connecting it to the line that plugs into the same pod as the FCD, but no workie... what other options are there? We did the "blow test" and verifed the guage does work.

Is the RB guage electric?

No

So your just wondering where the vacum line goes?

phinsup 07-21-2002 10:47 PM

YUP

you can tee it to any vacuum source. doesn't matter

The most common place is to T the line into the vacuum hose coming from the factory charge relief valve(BOV) and leads into the UIM. That's a good place for an acurate reading...I've got a pic if you need one..

it didn't work when I came off the vacuum line from the pod that the FCD goes too.

Rotaryman88 07-21-2002 11:09 PM

Hmm...well, like vosko said...just about any vaccuum source will work, typically ones around the UIM are best...

It didn't work there? That's odd, the hose goes from the UIM to the pressure sensor.

If it makes you feel better my stock boost gauge isn't working now. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png It was last night when I drove home. Oh well. I might just hook the gauges from Rotormotorsports, since I'm getting sick of waiting for Slave to send the other ones. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...>/rolleyes.gif
