RE: Well here goes nothing
isntllated pillar pod today, succuss in the physical installation, but wiring is a differnet story. Boost gauge is all set, just waiting for a vacuum source so the vacuum line is just hanging out for now, tach is all f*cked up (link is if you wanna help me out), and voltmeter is good except the backlight burned out, so i'm gonna have to get a replacement. Auto parts store wasnt open so i could get clamps, vacuum T's, hoses, nipples and other random stuff for the vac mani installation, so that'll have to be another day.

Volts, boost, and rpms? I would think an oil pressure would be more important. Anyway it looks good but I think it would look better if you had white gauge faces now so they match, are you planning on them after the build is over? Keep it up Ben. [sm=smiley20.gif]

RE: Well here goes nothing
i used to have white gauge faces but they were the crappy ebay ones and they burned out. Since then i've done hte custom LED strips like addiction did. I like them alot better, although i do agree they'd match alot better with a white face.
anyway, my tach doesnt work, although its wired to the same signal wire as my shift light, which is working perfectly. I dont really understand it.....and it looks lame just sitting there

First, need help with charge piping. This kit i found lets you choose an assortment of pipes and clamps, CHECK THIS OUT.
What 6 pipes do you guys suggest i get, what size (i'm thinking 2.5"), and then of course the couples and T-bolts to match the size.
Next, Tuner Toys oil line kit. Judging by this link,, which oil line kit should i select? How do I know what size oil inlet and drain flanges i have, or atleast what do i measure to get the right measurements?
And lastly, GReddy Full Auto Turbo Timer. I found this deal, and it looks pretty good. Price looks decent, and is that the correct harness? I'm converting to OBD1, and i'm not sure which harness it plugs into, is it anything that has to deal with OBD2 vs OBD1? Or is that the harness i can use?
