Alternative location to tap boost gauge?
Hi,
I know you can tap boost from the dump valve vacuum pipe, but where else can you do this from? I have blocked off the dump valve and currently have the boost gauge going straight from the dump valve vacuum pipe, no T junction. Not sure if that's the right way to do it when blocking off the dump valve or if I should seek an alternative location.
Even if my way is fine, it'd be good to know an alternative
Thanks

Yep thats fine
dependant on year of car there may be a spare nipple on the inlet manifold that could be used.
any of the vacumm pipe could be tee'd into and it would wirk. just the dump valve is easiest for access etc
