Hi guys - I'm in the process of ordering my gauges - going with the ISSPRO Dodge look-alike gauges for Pyro, Boost, and Fuel Pressure. My question is - does anyone have pdf's or links to good instructions on installing these gauges?

Pyro - I'm going with a pre-turbo install

Boost - don't know what to do with this - assuming a banjo bolt and applicable hoses?

Fuel Pressure - I'm thinking about ordering one of those billet fuel filter caps from Geno's garage with the 1/8" NPT hole in the top of it. And yes, I'll have an isolator, etc. installed. Is this the easiest way to install the fuel pressure gauge, or can someone give me another suggestion? I just thought the filter cap install would be the easiest.

Any suggestions / thoughts / comments would be appreciated. Thanks !!!

 

I don't have a writeup but I do have pictures of my boost bolt, and banjo bolt for your fuel pressure. I believe the Genos cap measures FP pre filter.

 

I am going to install my pyro this week and i am going pre turbo, but on my boost guage i drilled and tapped the intake. I felt i got a better reading this way.

 

Pyro - drill/tap the exhaust manifold. Lots of posts here on that one - use the duct-tape-over-the-exhaust method, that will keep all the chips out of the manifold. A quick search here should turn up lots of detailed instructions on doing this.

Boost - get a boost bolt from Geno's Garage. Replace the manifold bolt with this boost bolt, and attach your (most likely supplied) 1/8"NPT to 1/8" compression fitting.

Fuel Pressure - better to get a tapped banjo bolt (again, Geno's supplies these) and replace the banjo bolt on the supply line at the CP3 injection pump. About the same amount of effort to install, but much easier when it comes to fuel filter changes (no hose to worry about).

As for electrical, that should be pretty straight forward. Get your +12V switched power from the cigarette lighter (red wire). Get your dimmed +12V lighting power from the headlamp switch (either orange/white or orange/black wire - depending on year. Verify with test light). Run your grounds to the bottom of the dash, behind the knee blocker panel - you'll see a bolt into the metal structure with a ground lug already on it.
