In the upper left of the car, next to the drivers side window where theres multiple guages, on mine theres nothing at all but a tiny light that doesn't come on. So Im assuming I have to get a boost guage to work with it but i dont know where you would run the wires too? I think my friend actually has a guaage that i saw with a bunch of wires on it but still, i dont know where to take them..
 
You're post is confusing as f*ck. Can you either rewrite it or post a picture for what you're talking about?
 
LOL, I assume the gauge with a bunch of lights is a AIR/FUEL ratio gauge... Boost gauge is usually a needle that measures PSI. Sometimes it can be digital.

i was thinking the same thing but then he said

Maybe someone installed a tachometer or shift light or something. Ehh. i wouldn't know. Im auto. :cool:
 
You claim to have done a 1G in a 2G swap but you can't figure out what gauges are on your A-pillar? (Or maybe "1Gina2G" stands for "first-generation American in a 2G DSM," which would help explain your writing).

In any event, when you see a single, little LED in a DSM, 99% of the time it's a so-called "knock LED" hooked up to the BCS line. If I'm correct, then it's a good thing that it isn't lit (unless, of course, it's merely disconnected).

This, is what I was trying to figure out for the longest:

Someone took the gauge out but left the wiring in it. Who knows what type of gauge it was for.
