Defi Boost Sensor Location
 

Guys,

I've found some good advice on the forums and have managed to fit oil pressure and temp sensors today. I can't find any pics of the boost sensor though. Where is the best place to fit it? I've got the T-piece from the dump valve sorted, I just need to bolt the sensor to something.

Cheers

Sensor? Mine has no sensor, it has a pipe, which was simply pushed onto an unused, capped off, pipe on the front n/s of the inlet manifold, and a box which converts the pressure variations into an electrical impulse. That bit is bolted to the n/s strut top.

If you want SPECIFIC info, be prepared to post specifics: what Defi's what car, what model year, etc etc.

It's a 2004 Sti, standard apart from a strut brace. By sensor, I mean the black box that the rubber hose attaches to.

To be more SPECIFIC I'm referring to the black box that is labelled as 'Sensor' on page 81 of the Deif Link Series Operational Manual. The page that is titled 'How to Install Sensors - Turbo'.

Just cable tied mine near the bulk head off some pipes, no problems for the last 2 years or so since fitting.

No need to be snippy, LOL:D

Seriously, guy, you do need to say what car, etc or any info you get ain't worth the time it took to read;)

Anyway, as stated, just bolt it, screw it, zip-tie it to anything handy so that the neoprene pipe isn't stretched, kinked etc.

Sorry Alcazar, I was getting a bit stressed yesterday. It's found a home and all is good now!

You're right though, a bit more info from me would have been useful.

No worries, you'd be surprised how many folk post things like " how do I take the headlight off MY CAR", forgetting that there are now about half a dozen Impreza models out there.
