Another question.

If i were to purchase a RE:Amemiya boost guage is it posible to wire it into my FC TII and have it working accurately? If so how difficult is it to do as frankly i wouldn\'t know where to start and would more than likely be paying some Cypriot garage to do it and don\'t want to be overcharged. Also i don\'t want to be shelling out £50+ for a RE:A boost guage to find out it won\'t work on my car.

boost gauges tend to be universal. if it\'s mechanical it\'ll have a capillary that runs from the back of the gauge that you just need to connect to the intake after the throttle body. if it\'s electronic it\'s basically the same deal, except that you connect a pressure sensor to the intake and then run a signal wire to the boost gauge.

easy job. just as above, hard bit is feeding the vac tube through the firewall.
theres a gromit just above the acc pedal that goes to the engine bay, i used that.

how accurate, depends on the gauge. could poss take to an engineering place to test how accurate it is.
