Question

Just been searching the ScoobyNet to find how to fit a boost gauge (mechanical) to my car. Found loads of stuff for MY97 on but none for the pre-facelift engine. My brother-in-law has fitted one to his Catalunya and it looks a piece of p!$s 'cos of the blanked pipe on the inlet manifold. However i can't find one on my engine (maybe im blind?).

Anyone got any advice on where to connect the gauge pipe to, pictures would be great too.

Cheers,

Tony.

No prob Tony,

Glad 2 have helped. The sites still in its infancy jnow as u can tell (havent wasted any time with anything that wasnt of use) Doing regular updates jnow, so nip back every now n then if u r doing "upgrades" Trying to catch up with all the features i should have done months ago but was 2 busy "using" the car

Pete,

Where did you get the gauges from? Did you make those yourself?

Nimbus,

I got the gauges from various sources as nobody had all the ones i wanted

Most of the gauges i got from:
Mike @ scoobymania 0115 913 3199 & Grant @ AWD 01738 63336
If u contact either of them tell them it`s the ones i bought that u r after, they`ll c u alright.

The pods I designed and made myself
I`ve also done a pillar pod but thats not shown on the site yet.

Hope this helps.

L8r
Pete
