Fitting a turbo gauge.
... the easy way
This is how ah did it...
Took the pipe from the wastgate off (this piccy shows the one on the other bus that was already cut and a tee piece put in place)...
Cut a small section of fuel pipe that ah had handy and stuck it on the tee piece....
Ah just happened to have an old Goodridge motorbike brake pipe kickin' around, so ah cut off the banjo ends...
and stuck it into the bit of fuel pipe...
Next ah took off the fuse holder ...
and poked the pipe through where the main wiring loom comes in...
then ah stuck it through the channel that the wires go up to the middle of the dash...
Then ah took the fittings off this end of the pipe as the internal diameter was perfect for the gauge and stuck another piece of fuel line over the top to secure it with a clamp....
That's pretty much it apart from wirin' in the light which was pretty easy red wire from gauge goes into a red/white wire and the black goes into a black one.
Job done
