johnrehder Posted March 26, 2011 Report Share Posted March 26, 2011 Ok so I got my SOS triple gauge a-pillar and I need to understand what the best way is to run wires thru the wirewall. I don't want to reinvent the wheel. Who has installed thier own a-pillar guages and wires etc? I'm looking for some reliable guages but don't want to break the bank, some of those things are expensive!! I'd like to do Air intake temp, Fuel pressure and air fuel mixture. I'll add a boost guage some other time since I'm running 8psi out of the paxton and I don't need a guage to watch that. Any tips or gauge suggestions welcome. thanks Guys!

There is a grommet with pre stamped cut outs to the left and below the pedals. I like the Aeroforce Interceptor gauge. You can monitor two functions at once.

kahmann Posted March 26, 2011 Report Share Posted March 26, 2011 I'd recommend running a boost gauge, regardless of how many pounds of boost you're running. It's a lot easier to detect a vacuum leak with a boost/vacuum gauge installed. As for wiring, Michael is right. Just crawl under the driver's side of the dash and you'll find a big rubber boot with wiring already running through it. Clip a new hole through the huge grommet and you'll have easy access into the engine bay for your wires. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
