Boost Gauge

I've Found That On Some Gauges You Can Hook In Between The Manifold And Map Sensor Located On The Passenger Side Upper Part Of The Eng. Compartment. There's A Line That Runs Between The Two That You Can Splice Into. My Gauge Is An Spa Technique Digital And It;s Mounted To The Intake Elbow. Drilled And Tapped To Fit 1/8npt... The Boost Gauges Is A Way Of Monitoring Your Cylinder Pressures. I Hear Most Guys Running A Max Of About 30-34 Lbs. Of Boost,, But I'm Sure This Can Vary Depending On What Mods You've Done To The Truck. Hope This Helps.......mark
