G'Day Guys and Gals,



Just Matt here again with another dumb *** question. So I go out last night and get a boost gauge and I wouldn't have a clue how to install it. FC 87 TII. Is there a website somewhere with a write up on the install with some pics. Intructions came with it but they refer to certain companants and i dont know what the hell they are talking about. If I can't do it I might just take it to someone who can and pay them. If anyone trys to explain it to me remeber I am a dumbass. No Acronyms pleadse as I wont kn ow what your talking about. And if you say plug it into the dubbywhacker, You will need to explain where it is and what it looks like.



Thanks Everyone!!!!!

All you need is a vaccuum line for boost, the rest is regular wiring, power, ground etc...



Just tee off the map sensor which is on the passenger side shock tower, that shoudl be it.

It came with a hose but what do I attach it to? One end on the back of the boost gauge, where does the other one go?

Tee off the map sensor on the passenger side there is a little "pod" with a vaccuum hose going into it, just tee off that line anywhere you want.
