Boost gauge install question?
Can someone tell me the best way to install my column mount boost gauge?
1- what is the best place to route the line to the supercharger with out
cutting a hole through the firewall. (haven't had the time to scope out)
2- should I just tap into the headlight switch for power and ground?
thanks

Take off the driver’s side wheel well panel, (from inside the car) stick a coat hanger through the fire wall where the hood release goes and pull the tube/wires in.
I would just tap the acc wire under the passenger foot well for the lights. Getting them to dim with the dash lights is somewhat of a pain, but can be done.

those are great shots on the install, but do you have any of the electrical connections? im looking for the 12+ on cranking and the best ground for the light. are those extra wires in the passenger kick pannel what you used?
