jmattley Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 I've got a boost gauge on the way for my 200tdi and I know how you plumb them in, but where exaclty would you feed the pipe through to get it to the top of the dashboard? Also, would I be better off tapping it straight into the manifold or should I just stick with it next to the actuator? Thoughts? Cheers guys!

ballcock Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 I fed mine through into passenger footwell but I was using pressure guauge from a boiler. as for where to connect it it would be better of at your actuator if your seeing what pressure that releases at.

Peterla Posted March 30, 2010 Share Posted March 30, 2010 I feed mine through a hole I drilled next to my Dash. Made a little pod top hold a EGT, Boost and Voltage meter. The boost pipe came through the passenger side following the Airconditioner pipework. I would plumb it into the actuator as I tapped mine into the manafold and my VDO Boost guage makes a little noise when my boost dropps. Suspect it is from the pulsing near the pistons as I tried a new guage with the same effect. Hope that helps Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
