My grommet filled up with so many pressure lines and wires that I just drilled when I had to run battery cable. Way easier than forcing a 0 gauge battery wire through a teeny-tiny hole.

EDIT: Teeny-tiny because it was already filled up with 1 FP wire, 1 vac line, 1 boost gauge wire and an assortment of other crap.

 

So... here's the gauge once installed I know... I should have mesured it 1 last time before screwing it there That's why you can see the vacuum line behind. But won't be like that for long

 

blaze, any chance you're going to divulge info on this ram air system?

 

Lol... Once ready I will. I actually have 2 projects running right now. The Ramair, and another little secret . Once one of them is either ready or has failed I'll post some info on what to do and what not to do if it fails. I've got the Ramair almost completely figured out but I have yet to start connecting pipes together and slapping them on the car for a test drive. *wink wink *I so whish I could find an Auterra Palm dyno system for dirt cheap*wink wink *, that way I could document my tests with way more information.

 

oh... and by the way people... Yes the gauge is sort of side way. A buddy of mine looked at it tonight and he was wondering why so I guess some of you must be thinking the same thing.

The reason the gauge is placed like that is fairly simple. As I will continu modding my car, more gauges will be added. I want to create a "common look and feel" with my gauges for "on the spot troubleshooting". When placing my gauges, the value that needs to be achieved and/or maintained will be at the top. No matter what the gauge monitors, the needed value will be at the top. That way, when going down the track or going down the street, if any of the needles isn't pointing straight up, I'll know on the spot that there is a problem somewhere.
