Tockley Member 51 Member For: 16y 6m 24d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 18/01/11 04:50 AM Share Posted 18/01/11 04:50 AM I know there are 100000 threads on gauges and pods, but after a couple of hours reading I still can't get myself some definite answers! I just got a full F6 gauge setup - pod, boost/pressure gauges, wiring loom, and senders for a decent price:Plenty of people recommend getting some aftermarket gauges put in, however for now I would like to rock the "OEM" look of the FPV gauges and change gauges down the track if I am not happy.A few questions around this and install to my BFII XR6T:1. A few posts mention that the setup I have bought won't go straight in to an xr6t as the F6 has boost sender spot on the intercooler? Confirm/deny? Anywhere else?2. Is there a full **genuine** FPV pod/gauge install guide - plenty of aftermarket and mod guides, but none with the factory loom, gauges, etc that I can find (detailed enough for a newbie like me)?3. Am I missing any parts - e.g. T-piece for oil pressure?3. Is this install job a real hassle, and should I get someone pro to do it? (If I have to ask all these questions, maybe I should, lol)4. Can people recommend shops in Melbourne that are reliable and reasonably priced to install the whole lot?Sorry for any repeats/rehashes here, but after lots of searching, I think it may be easier to get all the answers in one hit if I can!!!Cheers guys!

The senders and so on are quite big. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/72726-genuine-fpv-gauges/#findComment-1074326 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tockley Member 51 Member For: 16y 6m 24d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 08/02/11 05:09 AM Author Share Posted 08/02/11 05:09 AM Is anyone able to confirm if a bf2 xr6t has a different engine wiring harness compared to the F6 and therefore the wiring loom from the gauge pods isn't "plug and play"?I have an install guide for oil temp/pressure and the wiring loom, however no indication of where people are placing the boost sender if I do not have the F6 intercooler. Is anyone able to provide some info?Cheers. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/72726-genuine-fpv-gauges/#findComment-1079293 Share on other sites More sharing options...
