Good morning all and indeed hello to those who are not reading this morning..lol

Am in the need for info on how to fit a Boost gauge to an MY94 wrx import.


Ie what pipe do you "T" off of, have done a search but can only find pics of the newer manifild type install ?

Am a complete novice on gauge fitting so any info on doing this would also be appreciated

Am of the understanding that it consist of one pipe from Manifild to gauge ???

Thanks Mick....

If you look under the bonnet of your car, on the left (drivers side) suspension turret there is a brown plastic sensor. I took the branch for my boost gauge from the vaccuum hose that connects to the right hand end of this sensor. I just cut the hose and used oner of those plastic T pieces.
To get the feed hose from there into the car you use one of the openings through the bulk head. I used the one just to the left of the intercooler, it has part of the wiring loom through it as well. Then you just need to decide where you want your gauge. Mine is fitted in the centre console, above the radio, along with an oil pressure gauge. Hope this helps.
