Hey guys, just after some info on where you plumb your boost guage into, also what runs off the banjo bolt on the inlet manifold besides the servo (which I've removed)?
Just starting to get to the point now where the car is coming together nicely and should be ready to start it up soon. Oh and where do you run your oil feed for the turbo from, is it safetest to take it from the pipe that runs to the oil filter or the pressure sensor.
Thanks again guys
Matt

plumb the gauge to somewhere on the inlet manifold,

usually just the servo runs from the banjo bolt, althugh on metro's there is an anti run on valve that is best binned,

take the turbo feed from there the oil pressure switch is, there are adaptors available so you can still run the switch and or a guage.

Is there any reason why you can't take it from on the carb where the vacuum pipe goes to the dizzy, obviously only if you are running megajolt??
