I am currently doing custom 3" to intercooler on mine and want to know... if I put a 3/8 barbed fitting into the I/c pipe b4 the t/b, and run a 3/8 hose from this to the boost/map sensor...(am I able to mount the sensor somewhere else so I dont have to extend the wires? )Cheers Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/36573-boost-sensor-on-ic-pipe-under-battery/page/3/#findComment-560366 Share on other sites More sharing options...

( mark with texter and must pull off vehicle and alloy to be clean ) . Approx $30 - $40 depending on application .
