Wanted - Boost Gauge Picture

[KillJoy]

I would like to know where everyone has attatched their Boost Gauge to in the engine bay.

A Picture would be really nice.

I don't have a picture, but it wouldn't help you anyway. The Trilogy comes with a fitting that threads into a machined hole at the back of the blower mounting plate.

A good rule of thumb for any Centrifugal type is to tee into a vacuum line [one that does not have a check valve in it] as close to the intake manifold as possible.

This is a view from the drivers side, with the firewall visible at the far right of the picture.

The brass fitting screws into the blower mounting plate and then the polyethylene tube runs to the back of the gauge located in the console or A pillar.

If you still use the stock upper intake, take a look at the vacuum schematic under the hood. There's a plastic vacuum line from the upper intake to the injector pressure sensor (IPS) that is handy to tee into for a boost gauge. The IPS is mounted on the top of passenger side fuel rail towards the front of the engine.

Thank you all very much. I finally got is figured out. I will post a pic later on showing where I connected.
