Where do you guys run your boost gauge line from the Intake Manifold to the interior (A Piller) of the FD. I am going to install one this weekend and any advices will be highly appericated.

Are you using regular vacuum line the whole way? IMO, the best way is to use a gauge that uses a small diameter plastic line to the gauge... this way you just run this tiny plastic pipe.
Run it through the steering column grommet using a piece of a coat hangar to break through and guide it through.... Brian |
Running a vac line the whole way, would make for an inaccurate gauge, you want the shortest about of vacuum line. They make mechanical boost guages? stupid imo.

Hmm, I have mine going to the extra nipple on the passenger side of the intake manifold. Maybe I'll run it to the same place the map sensor reads?
|
So is better to run the line from the MAP sensor?
|
not necessarily better. Somewhere after the intercooler. That's where all of mine are.

I ran mine from the UIM nipple, and then drilled a small hole in the firewall. Then run the hose along the left of the dash and into the A pillar.
|
I ran mine off the MAP sensor line.
