Dawes valve help

As per mudskis post I bought one of the quick fit adapters and it fits and works perfectly.

I have a Cross Country intrcooler on order, does this already have a boost port?

[mudski]

Well it should have the port there. Where the MAP sensor will bolt on. You can buy the adapter I stated to fit there or the CC coolers might even have an extra port. Not sure on that. How much did they sting you for the cooler? The IC is the last thing I am very dubious on getting as my EGT are low anyhow. So this is something I've been putting off.

Hi Mudski

I/C was $1450. I know it is pricey but with towing my main concern, I really want to ensure lower egt and limited heat soak from long periods of towing. I actually opted for the cooler over a chip at this stage. With the boost line I have seen t pieces put on basically under the boost sensor also for the dawes, this could be an option. I still have to fit an EGT gauge and am undecided about whether to get a gauge that can mount in a din slot or as a pillar pod. Work is really killing me at the minute and affecting my ability to concentrate on the relaxing things,so small decisions like the EGT just seem monumental at the minute.

If space is a concern for the gauge I opted for a McNally gauge and fitted it inbetween the tacho and speedo. Its both boost and EGT. Looks a treat too.

I'd show you a pic of my setup but I'm away from home and don't have access to the pics. But I have shown it here so it will be in a few threads....
As for the IC. $1450!!!Holy moly!!! But we'll see. I may need a better IC as my new camper is a heavy mofo so it will be interesting seeing how my car goes on the stock IC.

Theres a DP chip on Ebay for $600. Thats how much I paid for mine...

Hi mudski is the adaptor for boost a good option ?

[mudski]

Yeah sure. Certainly the easier option.
