I did take the dash out to make it easier, but that is only a few screws. We went for the OZ gauge, my kid luves them. arron Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/42945-tripod-gauges-fitted/page/2/#findComment-650007 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coley Member 110 Member For: 16y 11m 14d Gender: Male Location: Ipswich Posted 06/09/08 09:01 AM Share Posted 06/09/08 09:01 AM (edited) Does the distance between your bov and the t piece matter? I have my bov near the battery and the t piece is where the vac line is (where factory bov usually is). The boost sensor is also mounted inside the cabin so about a metre from the t piece. Will the extra length in tubing have any effect on the accuracy of the gauge? At the moment I'm using the factory tune which I thought was 6psi. My boost gauge says 5psi when your pushing it but most the time 4psi when accelerating. It reads -20 when idling so I know that's correct. Here is a pic of my gauges that I took with my phone. I haven't connected the oil temp or AFR yet just run the power to them.
