Cobalt Oil PressureCobalt Boost/Vac 20psiNow I just need to install them...So is there much to it?just run the T piece for the boost from...? where?And I havent really looked/opened them.. but the guy tells me it comes with a sender for oil pressure?How does that hook up?←Boost you can get from behind the BOV, just cut the line to the manifold in half and use the Tee piece. that's what I did. For the oil pressure, I bought a VDO Tee piece, cant remember the part number, but that went in where the factory sensor is, so you can then hook up the autometer sender and the factory unit. ZAP had done a write up on how to do this.←Thanks heaps!ill give it a shot.. hopefully during the week if I can get away from work early enough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had it in 3 days - awesome service. As you have to gut the gauges warranty means nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben←Actually worked ok (if you call the oil pressure gauge moving anti-clockwise ok ) but the lights would dim then turn off. So I ran the ground and ignition from the cig lighter as most have used and switched my TC connection for lighting as it was reversed to what has been posted.TC control Earth = Blue wire with a red stripe.Power = Blue wire with a white stripe., Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
