I have the full wiring loom set for both gauges and the oil pressure sender however is a sender even required for the boost gauge? or is the wiring loom sufficent?Cheers, Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/35986-fpv-boost-gauge-question/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not too concerned about the oil pressure as I have the sender required for that to operate correctly. So your opinion is that the wiring loom once connected to the engine sensor harness is all that is required for the boost gauge to operate?Cheers, Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/35986-fpv-boost-gauge-question/#findComment-546764 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have just bought the fpv gauges, pod and wiring harness but I can only see where the oil pressure plugs into this harness. I only own a ba xr6 turbo mk2 where does the boost signal come from.

Anyone have pic? I'm aware of the boost sensor on the intercooler pipe, but I believe this not apart of the gauge wiring system.

But you really don't want to use the factory gauges as they suck.
