[joegamma1]

I ran mine off the fpr vac line.

 

[Evan3493]

Can i run mine threw that? also how did u wire it to your dash did u drill anything?

 

[blkgst97]

Yes you can tap your boost gauge there. That line is the vacuum line to you FPR.

 

[Evan3493]

Also were could i find the firewall on my 98 GST so i can run the wire?

 

[blkgst97]

OH BOY. The sheet of metal that seperates you in the cabin from your engine bay, that is the firewall. You can run the line through the rubber boot for steering column that is what i did.

Your firewall is behind your intake manifold, it shouldn't be hard to find


Now if you want a way to route it, you can do what I did and cut a small hole in the grommet where your steering goes through the firewall and route the hose through there.

Ok bud, the WHOLE metal area the separates the passenger cabin from the engine bay is the firewall. Trust me you have seen it countless times.

My g/f is named amy but she doesn't have a PS.


Dude, Look at where the steering column, you know the thing your steering wheel is attached to, goes through a rubber thingy in the metal the separates the people holder and the engine place. Poke a hole in that rubber thingy and feed your boost hose through it.

Who is amy? Does she own the car? jk Need to do some more research on these cars before something major goes wrong with yours

 

[Evan3493]

thanks tally i found that rubber the steeringwheel is attcked to. how thick is the rubber? can i just get a screw driver and poke it threw or drill it?

sorry i ment amp..

 

[blkgst97]

You should not need to drill it. Just poke a small hole through it and run your line through it and then T into the line stated earlier and you should be good to go. Might also want to use some sort of thread sealant on the threads at the back of your boost gauge so you dont have a leak. Good Luck

You can use a screw driver and struggle, or what I would use would be any kind of knife to poke through.

 

[turboboy4]

Yes you can just poke through it. its not that thick

 

[agedog2gT]

Yep you got it, put a lil T in there hook up the hoses and run it through your firewall and your golden! good luck!

 

[joshrww]

here like this hope this helps

on another note.. anyone know what i can use that would be safe to get that spry paint off my tubing and wiring. ? the guy i got it from went crazy.

 

[Evan3493]

i would replace the tubeing and looking at your wires i see its there covering painted not the wires it self so you could just replace that aswell for almost nothing. also thanks for pics got mine set up now.

Evan Evan Evan. I don't know if you remember me or not, but I'm Evan.
Come on man!! If you don't know what the firewall is, then that's fine, google it, that way you don't look so stupid. But this thread may get you picked on, sorry man.

 

[Bluefire16]

^^ oh dont worry. He has... many times

 

[95gsttsi]

Run your boost hose through the steering boot? Really? There should be a hole near where your brake Fluid resivior. If not drill there. To ensure no movement and stress on the hose! It's a little hard to get it there but trust me well worth it
