Factory Boost Gauge Tie-In Point
Factory Boost Gauge Tie-In Point
Guys,
Installing my Autometer B gauge tommorrow, and I really Dislike Hacking into the FPR hose as suggested in ALL the Install Threads here, so where do they Tie-In the facotry gauge on the MR & RS (I have a IX)....a Search brings up ZILCH
Thanks!!

On my 05 MR it was tapped into the FPR line. On my friends 06 MR it was tapped into the BOV vac port where it comes off the intake manifold. (Follow the lines from the stock BOV back to where the vac line gets to a pressure port on the intake manifold). The stock tie in was in the line right of the intake manifold, on his 06 model MR.
Hope that helps

ok i taped into that line... and i am still having a problem. still get a -20 vac (idle, driving).
the most it boost at is like +20 if that. but does NOT zero out when idle or drive while not boost.

When you idle you should be around -20 to -15. The only time it should zero out is when the car is turned off

Yes your gauge is working and those numbers are normal.
