Question need brains 4 boostgauge hookup ...

howdie guys,

i promise i did a search but i'm afraid my answer didn't came up very clear ... so,

what about having troubles, because of tapping the vacline of the FPR - wouldn't that cause faulty readings for ECU / FPR ??

wouldn't it be nicer to tap the brakebooster vacline ??

should also be a nice source for vac/pressure readings, aye ?!

anyone already tried, experiences ??

- i found this, look :

http://www.sytyarchives.com/howto/vi...php&dir=gauges


OR is it correct, that evo's ECU/FPR readings do NOT suffer from tapping the FPR vacline, unlike the typhoon (maybe the differnce between MAP and MAF) ??


- i mean it's kinda logical for me, that the FPR sees the vac/boost value after the gauge - there'e a little bit of "delay" that can cause knock or worse IMO ... is that true or nuts ??

(had a gmc typhoon before i got an evo )




THX 4 input, pat.

I tap mine to the FPR line and it works fine. Not sure about brake boost line you're talking about. Just do as most people do and you should be ok. GL
