Nightmare installing EGT/Boost Gauge
#47
Installed the same gauge about a month ago. I went post-turbo and have no regrets. I was not that impressed with the instructions, and blew the hose off several times at the intake manifold and once at the gauge, but after using the small tie wraps, it has been great.
I second the suggestion to leave extra hose and wire for pulling the pillar.
I am feeling lucky that mine sets at zero, see 31 #s boost at WOT, and like the fact that I have not added any more blindspot.
I agree on Geno's being great.

OK guys here's an update. I got a new gauge from westach and just swapped them out. Happy to say it was in fact a defective first gauge, because now my boost works perfectly and settles to 0.
