where is the best place to tap a boost gauge into? pics would also be a big help

 

Try Diesel Manor website - He has instructions on the site.

 

I used the AIH delete plug with boost fitting from Pure Diesel Power HERE .

Works well and got rid of the Air Intake Heater. Where you live, you will never miss it.
EDIT: THIS is the one I used, the above one includes code eliminator

 

most T into the map line..in front of the spider pipe there is a black rubber hose (looks like a gas line) that is pluged into the spider just under a sensor..it will go to the map sensor located to the left..just cut that hose and put in a plastic T


in my pic the map line is red..the dial to the left is my Overboost Annihilator just under that is the map sensor...my boost is in the AIH port

 

is there a way i could do this by going to home depot. or maybe a 5min fix? i am going on a trip and don't have the time to wait on parts?

omg where did you get the red pipes? i love them and want a set now!!

 

thank you there candy apple red..i painted them...you should be able to get a plastic T at home depot...bring the brass fitting for the boost and get a T for a 1/4 inch hose..get 2 hose clamps and T into the map line..re read my last post..

 

thats what i was thinking thank you. could you send me a paint number and kind. i just cant let you be the only one with some pimp pipes like that. my truck is all black and the red and black look is devilish. thank you for your time

 

LOL a friend of mine is a body man...he had some dupont candy apple red left over from an old car he painted..i sanded the pipes used some good primer ,,painted them ..then gave them 3 coats of clear.. as you can see they scratch easy...

 

i don't want to start a new thread but where the y pipe from the turbo goes into the right bank there is alot of oil on the boot is this a boost side? i just was looking at it today and there is oil and grime all over it

You can see mine in this pic. The clear tygon tube going into the brass fitting. If I were doing it again I would put into the AIH heater plug like zx250 did. Very nice.

 

Ron, what is the device that is connected to the red hose on the left side of your pic?

Edit: Never mind, I got it now.

 

above the map sensor?? thats my ITP Overboost Annihilator

lol edit..never mind..i got your never mind

 

can i just tap a fitting into that stock fitting. ie. will the sensor come out woth the fitting still there? i have like 5 fittings that came with the boost gauge.

 

Blksiryder, The AIH is not a fitting, it is a 2 3/4 inch long coiled heating element.

Do you have a drill press? If so go to AutoZone, or Orielleys, get a 22mm oil drain plug. If the plug is a flat top with a 1/4" square head drive in the top, get a 7/16 drill dit and a 1/4" NPT tap. drill out square head and tap with the 1/4", you should have a 1/4male to 1/8 female bushing that came with the guage package go to hardware store and get the fittings to match up to your guage line. I will post pics in the A.M. look in the "for those who cant wait" thread.

 

ok i got everything hooked up and now i see withthe red wastegate line hooked up i am only getting 15psi boost. i unhook the line i get 20 psi boost. is this a wastegate problem or is there just no load on the turbo to build 25 psi?
