Really? Did you suffer any boost creep or boost hunching(drop off)? Let me know because I would like a more steady boost pattern and Jerk Racer is having major boost creep problems. Thanks.

It's better to put a nipple on the intercooler pipe before the intercooler, and attach the hose there so it doesn't see a pressure drop from the intercooler / Piping etc... You'll get a beeter smoother boost pattern....
Tap it into where? The one that is supposed to go to the fuel prx regulator right? Tap it into which hose on the intercooler and where LOL



Thanks.

When you have long lines it will throw off the reading due to the time it takes to fill the line with air and the flex/expansion of the hose, same goes for when you start putting in T's all over the place... bad ju ju...



O' and never never hook any thing up to a blow off valve vacume hose, that really screws with **** due to the volume of air in the end of the blow off and the fact that there is a diaphragm in there moving around... This also causes a delay of the actual boost reading to the sensor and will create a really nice boost spike...

i like to t it in with the map sensor, you cant use the fuel pressure regulator on a usa car because it has a solenoid in that vacuum circuit.

drill a hole and get a 1/8 npt tap and tap the hole, then get a 1/8 npt to hose fitting and screw it in and hook up the vaccume hose.. I have all the tools, so I'd take me about 5-10 min tops.. Of course you need to take off the pipe when you do this and clean out all the metal shavings with brake or carb cleaner before you put it back together...

The profec comes with the nipple. Just find a nice spot to tap, and tap away. Not too familiar with TII... is the IC pipe plastic?

The IC pipe is rubber.
