Boost gauge install.

I ordered an Autometer mechanical boost gauge yesterday, with a pillar pod. I was searching for anything on how to install it. The main problem I see is how to run the tubing. If anyone has any tips, or knows where to re-direct me, that would be great!

Look under gauges.

One tip: Don't use the white nylon hard tubing that most gauges come with. Buy a brass barbed fitting that fits on the back of the gauge and use standard rubber or silicone vacuum hose. The nylon tubing is hard to work with and tends to kink, which may cause issues with correct boost measurement. Use a standard vacuum hose tee, teed into the FPS-to-manifold vacuum line.

Let us know how it turns out.
