    I recently fitted the Redarc Pyro boost gauge,(G52-EB) but was to an intercooled 4.2 not a 3.0. The gauge is supplied from Redarc with a ‘black box’ which gets fitted somewhere inside the car (not in the engine bay). This is referred to as the Boost EGT interface. The lead from the pyro & the hose for the boost connect to it, & a multi pin cable connector connects wires to the gauge. It looks as though the ‘sensor interface’ you linked to is for connecting the other end of the hose inside the engine bay. Whether it’s necessary on a 3.0 litre or not I don’t know. On the 4.2 all that was needed was a T piece (also supplied with the Redarc gauge) cut into a vacuum line at the back of the intercooler.

    I expect someone with a 3.0 will comment where & how they connected their boost hose in the engine compartment.
