boost and pyro install

hey guys, just wondering if the 610 series motor has the same intake manifold on it as the 2002's did?? If it is is it a 3/4" plug that is in the manifold, cant quite remember.

And for the pyro where is the best place too mount it?? On the top of the manifold catching the 4-5-6 cylinders or on the portion of the manifold that is going down too the turbo?? and have any of you just used the stainless clamp too do it here or has everyone just tapped it??

oh and can y'all give me hints as too which wires under the dash give me switched power, and lights??

TIA Jon.

I put my boost in the intake manifold, (drill and tap) I put the pyro on the top of the exhaust, just before the part where it kinda drops down. The wires I use the fuse box. And I just went by the light switch for the lights wires

Hope this helps

Kevin

on my 06 there was two orange with black tracer wires going to the light switch. I think one is the cargo light and the other is the dash light's just check it with a test light to find the dash light wire.

Get a boost bolt and replace one of the intake bolts with it.

My dual Westach from Geno's came with a boost bolt that fit my 06'. Removed one of the intake bolts and replace. I drilled and tap the exhaust manifold in same place as previous picture.
