    Another boost gauge question

    Right I have another question about boost gauges, just about to get one, firstly is there a cetain type I need for the twin t galant? Also have heard loads of different commens on how to install. Im not the greatest mechanical mind, so a pic would be great, I have stole this one from aposton here and just want to make sure it the right hose to tap into.
    If its not waswondering if anyone has an diagrams or pics they could upload.
    Thanks.

    The one in your first post is the right one, it will then measure the vacuum and boost pressure in the inlet,
    the pipes in your second post are used for the bleed off from the boost solenoid in the first pic and the fuel pressure solenoid in the second

    Connect to any pipe that comes from the plenum.
    Too much is just enough.
