Hey guys :)

Just planning on mounting my guages today, did you guys make ccustom brackets for them? Both my boost and afr guages came with these wierd brackets that have two prong facing the guage?

I was going to mount them on the bar to the right of my clocks, I have the 3 clock setup

Just want to know where you guys mounted yours and how/what bracket you made/used

Cheers

the pronged bit is just a clamp to hold them into a gauge pod.

Steering wheel may obstruct your view of them there. Probably best to sit in the car and see where you can see them best from.

Ok, while ive gotten your guys attention on the boost plumbing guide it shows 2 t pieces in the take off from the manifold to the dumpvalve mj and boost guage. Loads of people commented on it saying they wouldnt use 2 t pieces, will it be okay to do this or should i put a second take off in the manifold for the mj on its own? Cheers
