HOW TO INSTALL YOUR BOOST GAUGE  
Boost Pressure Signal  
The boost gauge requires a suitable signal post turbocharger to read positive pressure.  
Route the supplied poly-hose from the sensor to signal source.  
As this sensor is only 0-30psi, it will only read positive pressure, even if placed at the manifold.  
Ensure the poly-tube is pressed all the way onto the barbs.  
If the sensor is mounted inside the engine bay, ensure that it is placed at a location away from any significant heat source.  
Wiring  
Both of the boost gauge and sensor must be connected to the vehicle’s ground (chassis or earth).  
Soldering or crimp on electrical connectors must be used on all electrical connections.  
Unused wires must be insulated with electrical tape in order to prevent unwanted electrical connections.  
Follow safe electrical operating practice.

Operation & Troubleshooting  
Once the electrical connections and sensor connection are completed, turn the car key to “on” position. The boost gauge will  
illuminate and the needle will be positioned at “0”.  
Start the car and check for any leaks.  
The needle position will change relative to pressure. If the needle does not move relative to boost pressure, ensure that all  
electrical connections are correct and that the pressure signal is connected correctly.  
If the display does not illuminate, ensure that the gauge electrical connections are correct.  
If the display illumination/operation is not switched with ignition, ensure that the red wire is connected to an ignition switched  
source not a constant +12VDC source.  
If the display needle is erratic, ensure that all electrical connections to the sensor are correct. Also ensure that the signal hose  
has no leaks, kinks or splits.
