Guys
Going over to my mates this weekend to help him fit a few scoob bits, one of which is a boost gauge.. he got it from scooby clinic and is one of their single a pillar pods. Having not installed one of these on my own motor how easy are they to do and whats involved..

cheers in advance

Got one fitted in mine, pop over and have a gander if you want

 

i may well do that before the weekend.. i think that must be a record for quick replies..:-)

How long did it take you to do and is it easy.. it could be a long day as i am helping him fit a new spoiler, front splitter and a new bonnet scoop...

could someone please tell me where you pick up the boost reading from.im installing a blitz boost controller and it needs to tap into a pipe which it can read the boost pressure.


cheers

i fitted mine last weekend - if i can fit 1 anyone can :-)

To get a reading you need to get a T piece and insert it into the rubber pipe which goes into the dump valve
To get the pipe into the cabin there's a rubber grommet on the bulkhead which leads to the drivers footwell.
I used a positive live from the clock, a switched live from the foglight switch and the earth from the nut on the fuse holder behind the steering column lower cover for the illumination

 

what a great site (especially the 2nd of the 2), will use that.. thanks for all your help on this guys..

nice one
