Anyone have a good guage "how to" with pics?
I have my autometer gauges ready to go in and I am looking for the easiest ways to wire them up for lighting, installation of my pyro probe, and where to get "boost" from on the intake system. I've heard about the boost bolt deal but something just doesn't sound safe about them. How many of you guys are running them?? Any suggestions on pictures and data would be greatly appreciated....and yes I DID use the search function and came up with nothing.
thanks in advance

Well I don't have any pictures but I just installed myt Isspro boost and pyrometer friday and it was alot easier than I was expecting. I didn't want to tap into any of the wires so I went into the fuse panel to get power for lighting. I chose a fuse that was hot with the switch. I lost the ability to dim the backlight with the dash lights but I never dim them anyway so that was not a problem for me. As for the boost bolt I wanted to use one but didn't want to wait for it so I drilled and tapped it. I removed the air tube from the airhorn and drilled the airhorn right above the opening that way I didn't have to worry about the shavings. But I still stuck the vaccum hose inside to help. For the pyro I already had the exhaust manifold tapped for the Edge/Attitude install last weekend. I used that hole and I am relocating the Edge one to post turbo cause I dodn't trust the electronic gauges.

You didn't say WHERE you intend to install your gauges?

underhood pics show what I did there. Also NavyDood's article already linked
above will show you a lot except, like mine, it is about the dashpod version.
