Boost gauge install????

[Big Boss Hoss]

Got some gauges today and need to get them in. Pyro seems simple enough, just going to go after the turbo. But where do you put the hose for the boost gauge???

should be a 1/8" pipe plug in the snail shell of your intake hat. That is where I put mine at.

You should really install the pyro pre-turbo to get any kind of an useful reading

ended up putting the egt gauge right BEFORE the turbo, but now need a fitting to plumb in the boost gauge hose to the intake hat.

IIRC my boost gauge came with the fitting needed to install the hose into the intake. Did you buy the gauges new? If so I would think there would be one in the box with your boost gauge. Good luck!

When I bought my gauges I had to buy a boost gauge install kit. It was like $15, and came with the fittings and hose.
