Again, I'll have to drive it a little more but, it seems, if you are driving on a flat Hwy with cruise control, yes, you may not see boost at all.



So, I was thinking the same thing. The port is in the intercooler tube right after the intercooler. I'll have to take a pic tomorrow. IDK, if it won't read vacuum because it is in front of the throttle body? I'm going to look tomorrow but if there was a leak, I think I'd see issues with it displaying boost?

So are you tapped into that 1/8 port on the AFE Cold side tube?

Sorry, I keep on forgetting. No, I have the AFE pipes so it's on the cold intercooler pipe. I'll try to remember soon.

Those of you that installed a manual boost gauge (or other gauges) post your setup. Trying to get ideas for what mounts are available

There's already a thread on this. I'll merge this for you so you can look through it.

I saw that but there's only one post of the gauge setup from 1.5 years ago...

Maybe someone can figure a way to run the Torque (or similar telemetry app) through Android Auto or Apple CarPlay, to display the "gauges" on the center screen. That would be cool.
