Well I want to run a 3 gauge pillar pod but have never done it before. Where do I tap a boost gage in the supercharger lines to get a reading, do I need anything additional to do so? Or is it all in the gauge packages when purchased?


Thanks all

 

Everything should be included with any gauges you buy....usually.

Boost gauge tap will be in the vacuum line from the throttle body to the vacuum regulator (thing making all the friggin clicking noises). The line on the throttle body is on the passenger side toward the front. Follow this and tap into it with a "T" for your gauge.

 

Kaeon made a guide that I found to be very useful, here let me find it.

Here ya go, my boost gauge (or shall I say VAC gauge since it only stays in Vac or 0 boost hehehe) works great. Its the same autometer ultralite that I had on my turbo DSM.

 

There is a small hose coming off the top off the BPV valve on the intake tubing.. that is the hose you will want to cut, and put your t-splitter on. The gauge will most likely not come with a t-splitter but they are 2 bucks for a pack of 3 or so from the general automotive store. that will be the only other item you should need depending on what boost gauge you got.

 

Thanks all this is the first time a got an exact answer without 10 people telling me about how theres works and what wheels they have and how I need to use search.


Good write up. I didnt realize there was that much to it. I will never fiund time to do that.
