putting my sc in and i am a little confused about where to run the boost gauge to. i got a gt40 manifold and there is a plug in the front by the egr plate and also another plug on the bottom of the upper manifold toward the front.

i dont know if i can run it to one of those.

where do you guys have your boost gauges run to???

thanks for everything,
steve

If at all possible route the boost guage and the vac source for the FMU to it's own source, or you will have accessories fighting for the same vaccum.

It is best the have the boost gauge going into the manifold, you can route the FMU to the other port also.
