Boost Gauge? how to install..

[Petrina Polo]

Hi Who amongst us has a boost gauge? what brand did you opt and how much did you pay..

Also how do you install them..

If anyone can give advice greatly appreciated.. also on brands and where to mount..

If anyone in West Sydney can install one, I will pay them... PM me..

I take it this is a petrol motor?

YEs... GTI... does anyone have a comprehensive set of instructions.. all the threads ive read a piecemeal..

I bought an autometer 2 inch 5/8th boost/vaccuum gauge for $87 brand new..

Even ebay has them for $150..

If anyone has a good set of instructions please advise.. hopefully for the polo gti..

Looks like you might have to make one as you go.

(The best I could do for you is to email some pics of my diesel Jetta install...don't think that would be too much help!)

I did my GTI myself. Its fairly easy. But ... since I don't have it anymore I can't get to it to get pics soon.

Will take some pics of the fittings and routing of vacuum line on Saturday as the GTI will be visiting me ..... .... isn't nostalgia a "female dog" .....

Might do up a DYI Boost Gauge fitment thread next week.
