Glanza_cl Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 boost gauge is easy, under the bonnet you have your vacuum line running to the bov carefully cut that in half- with the boost gauge you should get new vacuum line and a T piece, put the T piece in the line and connect it all together, the new vac line you received will run into the cabin, there is a rubber bung in the fire wall (i used this to run the vac line in) once you have got the line in(this was one of the trickiest parts) just connect that to the back and you should have a complete vacuum pressure- the gauge will read in the minus until you actually accelerate and wont pass 0 until you hit boost.you will also probably have a back light on the boost gauge just connect up the live to one of the lights (mine went to the fog, as it was closest) and the other should be a earth just connect that to a individual bolt connect to the frame or i found a earth which ran to another earth so used that hope that helps Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Glanza_cl Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 i don't unfortunately, but behind the intake manifold on the heat shield on the left hand side of the bay at the back there should be a small rubber bung with some wires going through it i used that, if not you could always drill a small hole bung very careful not to split anything.what do you drive? as the ep82 engine bay could be different.
