As above need some fitting instructions or some pointers on where the wires and pipes go?
Cheers

Really hard to fully explain but here goes.

OK, so. parts you have are

1 .Gauge
2 .Boost sending unit thing with wire and connector.
3 .Wiring harness and bare wires to hook up power and illumination.


Step one: Right so, First have a look at the firewall at the back of the engine and you will see a allen key bolt. Well I used this to hold the (2) so attach this now

Step two: T into the pipe from the fuel pressure regulator to the inlet manifold and joint to the sensor we fitted in step one. (although some people will tell you its very bad to do this so its your call - worked for me but its to do with problems that may occur if pipe falls off)

Step three: get wire from (2) into foot well. (I had it going through the gromit into the ECU weather box and then down and into the car)


Mount the gauge where you want it and get the connection to it from (2)

Then its just a case of getting power to it from item (3) this is where the instructions would be nice but sure someone can confirm, might help if you identify what colours you have on this. It started to rain and the little bit of paper with the wiring got messed up.

Sure Blue thunder will know.

If you look at the thread I posted, it has the link, as well as some more info.
Also, as I fitted Stigter's with him, you should find that the wires are all long enough now to allow an easy fitment. Good luck!

Now fitted. pice of p*ss. 45mins all in. Found that the cable was not long enough for a nice tidy install so i had to extend it. Apart from that im well happy. Much better than my old guage. Just need to resist the power to dim the back light slightly.

My continuous night-time driving retina-burn means I should do that also.

Is that all that needs to be done? In-line resistor on the feed? Would you be any good at suggesting a suitable rating? I'd have no idea.....
