trying to test the boost

afer fitting 1mm mig tips

have a boost gauge(borrowed off a mate) until i get one

cant seem to get it to work

got some info off tt zs of dallas

but cant find right pipe

 

steve:confused: :confused:

If its temporary, Tee into any of the pipes hanging directly off the balance bar. This will give true boost pressure at manifold.

Why is that only if its temporary? I plan to have mine there when I plumb it in properly... :confused:

Just saying you don't need to think about placing pipes, etc. for a temporary solution - quick and easy ;)

 

If you were to plumb one in permanently, I would certainly consider pipe routing, etc. And some of the vacuum hosing in that area won't give proper boost readings (e.g. if it comes from AIV solenoid, EGR, etc.)
