  • installing boost controller

    i got a manual boost controller and in the directions on how to set it up it says to hook one of the sides up to the waste gate. now here is where the problem is. i have a turbo book and that has a drawing of just where the waste gate arm is. do I just hook it up some where there or do i plug it in to the actuator? or some where else if those are the wrong spots? the directions also say to put the other side to the pressure side of the system. Is that jus any where from the turbo to the intake? if wrong please specify again. also if you have pictures on how to do this and where you mounted yours would be appriciated. and where did you guys put the after market boost gauge (if you have one). i really dont want to get a gauge pod or something like that. i think they are ugly. do you think it would be ok if i put it down by the ash tray or something like that? Thanks.

    StangerJon,
    This site has a search feature (upper right-hand corner). Type in bosst controller and you'll find all the information you are looking for. This question has been asked a million times, and answered, even with pictures (thanks, Bud!)
    If you don't find it, PM me, and I can email you the pictures...I think I still have them?
