BenKey Posted August 31, 2005 Report Share Posted August 31, 2005 Search in this forum. If the search function doesn't work, just scroll through the pages. There are pictures out there. The location is on the driver side, right about at the end of the plenum where it bends. There is a brass cap there. I just went to Lowe's or HD and got the brass connection like you would use for a ice maker. Not the kit, just the pieces. As for trying to find the right wires, while you're at one of those places, buy the $10-15 voltmeter and find the right place that way. Easiest way.

SSplaytoy Posted August 31, 2005 Report Share Posted August 31, 2005 Driver side in the back on the unit, just take out the brass plug, teflon the fiting that came with the gauge, and put it back in. I can't remember the wire color though. Use the search. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wkdivr Posted September 1, 2005 Report Share Posted September 1, 2005 Why not just tap into the same wire that powers the intercooler pump? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XSS Posted September 14, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2005 Thanks for the replies and the pics! Still have to hook up the wires though. I am using an Autometer electric boost gauge. Is tapping in to the intercooler pump correct? How about fuel pump? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FuelSlut Posted September 18, 2005 Report Share Posted September 18, 2005 dont tap into the fuel pump IMO enough is tapped off that in the first place (intercooler pump etc.) keep the voltage nice n stady there for good fuel pressure (youd see what i mean with a fuel press gauge) ANYWHO, grey wire at the back of the dimmer/headlight switch.... very effective, KOEO and EASY to access.... good luck!

Tapped into the power wire from the intercooler pump relay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
