Tommyd16 Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Where is the best place to route through the bulk head for vac hose? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gpro Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Is this a manual or electronic boost gauge? i.e have you got a solenoid or does the vacuum line plug straight on to the gauge? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommyd16 Posted February 5, 2014 Author Share Posted February 5, 2014 It's an apexi boost gauge. Has a Seperate sensor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Supes Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 There's a large grommet with ample space to the left of the bulk head. You can't miss it. Just push it through from the engine side and pick it up under the steering wheel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Supes Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Shouldn't be too hard. Don't forget the filter whilst you're there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommyd16 Posted February 5, 2014 Author Share Posted February 5, 2014 What boost should I be at idle 0? I'm at -0.5 :s Not fully wired properly yet tho but I should think that would be a problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Supes Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 You'll always have vacuum on idle. Sounds about right, but someone should know exactly what it should be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommyd16 Posted February 5, 2014 Author Share Posted February 5, 2014 Lol what's the boost on a standard tt auto? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gpro Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Lol what's the boost on a standard tt auto? Stock i think its 0.7 bar and at bpu they usually raise it to 1.1/1.2 bar (Don't go over 1.2 bar) Also note on a cold day you may boost a little bit more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommyd16 Posted February 5, 2014 Author Share Posted February 5, 2014 Cheers. Is just the turbos that can only go to 1.2 bar? I have jspec btw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gpro Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 (edited) Yeah turbos tend to blow if you run them over 1.2 bar for X amount of time. Also injectors are pretty much maxed out at 1.2 bar Edited February 5, 2014 by Gpro (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommyd16 Posted February 5, 2014 Author Share Posted February 5, 2014 Nice one cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommyd16 Posted February 5, 2014 Author Share Posted February 5, 2014 Sorted I thought the dials were going to light up blue to match the gauge though. Oh well (Dash isn't properly put back together yet lol) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
