I was wondering if anyone can give me some step by step, maybe pictures of how I should/ where I should wire my boost guage hose into the cab, one guy from the tta mailing list recommended through the area where the fuse box is in the firewall. I know I have to attach the tee valve on on of the lines in the vaccum block, but how do I get the hose into the car!
Thanks,
Eric

Mine was on the car when I got it, but it is a tiny nylon line running through one of the grommets. As for going from rubber vacuum line to the nylon line, just shove it into the rubber line about 6" and there isn't a problem. Pretty simple. Also, you can mount it under the dash pad in front of the left A/C vent and it is plenty visible. Hope you didn't buy a 20 psi gauge, it will be worthless when you crank up the boost.

I drilled through the firewall about 3/4" to the left of the hood latch cable and took the boost signal off the vacuum line running to the charcoal canister. Tied in about half way so the line runs under the master cylinder and under the spaghetti of wire at the cluster of relays on the firewall. Put a rubber grommet on the fire wall and ran it through. Only part you can see is a few inches of the nylon tubing before it goes into firewall. HTH
