Quick question in middle of installing boost gauge

[ImRobboToo]

When I install the boost gauge, diagram has it coming from outlet on IC then T's going to sensor and the boost regulator. When I put it too boost regulator, do I inline it, in the hose that's already going there ? Or straight into the regulator.

I'm half way through, and don't want to install it wrong, and have something POP on me. Cheers

And if it's straight to it, what happens with the the black hose with filter on ??

[threedogs]

doesnt that one with the filter come from the vacume pump and to the bottom of the Dawes valve??
Its a one way valve not a filter is that right??
Dont forget to loop off the air solenoid and return air lines

I'm not putting the Dawes in just now.
It's the Boost gauge only. In diagram it says tubing from surge tank ( which is outlet on Intercooler) into a T then off to the Sender Unit (with inline filter supplied) then to the Turbo Regulator.
Now the regulator already has a hose, so do I inline the Boost Gauge, or bypass it for now, until I put the Dawes in? And if I do bypass it, is that when I loop off the Air Solinoid ???


Tapping it out . . .

Forget air solenoid. where are you getting your boost from?

[ImRobboToo]

From the out pipe in the intercooler. Looking firm front of engine top front most pipe

Right pipe but that is all thats needed for a guage . No tee required. You have put that fitting on that pipe in a prick of a spot by the looks. Get an elbow for it then it won't rub.

Thanks boots. Then why do these instructions have it going to the Boot Pressure regulator ???

I have just modified it. I didn't won't it right on the bend, as I never plumb into bends.
Mind you, when I marked it out, it was further from the pipe. I'm going to run some thicker Exhaust pipe from it. That clear stuff that come with the gauge, feels like jelly after just running down the road.

Thanks again mate
