fitting boost gauge on a bugeye ej20
I would like to fit a boost gauge on my bugeye, can someone point me in the right direction to which hose I need to T into, there are so many and I guess some are filled with water not air
.
Any help inc photos if possible would be good.
Thanks in advance

you could also tap into the vaccum pipe coming off of the dump valve.

Cheers, I am going to be fitting it saturday afternoon while doing an oil change, is there a place for "Guides" on here as I was thinking of taking photos as I do it so others can follow...I know its not going to be hard but someone else might find it useful.
