Aftermarket boost gauges are an important part of increased performance for turbo charged vehicles because factory gauges are connected to a vehicle's computer rather than the actual boost pressure being built inside the intake manifold. A boost gauge is easy to install and takes only an hour to complete. Secure the dashboard mounting panel in a position that can be viewed easily when operating the vehicle. The placement of the new boost gauge assembly is flexible.
Ranging from an A-pillar pod mount to a steering column adapter, the under dash mounting bracket is secured using two self tapping screws driven into the bottom edge of the dash panel near the center console. An easy placement, the dash mounted boost gauge will give the driver a quick view of the boost gauge when needed and is out of the way of view or hands. Remove the top screw cap that will be the front molding when the boost gauge is installed into the mounting panel.
The top of the gauge screws off and then the gauge is placed behind the mounting panel, and inserted into the panel so the front screw cap can be secured onto the gauge. Tighten the screw cap onto the gauge tightly and the gauge will stay in one place during use. If the gauge uses screws or nuts and bolts to secure the mount, do this now to ensure the gauge is protected from damage. Direct the boost gauge sending unit through the firewall of the vehicle into the engine compartment using existing wire harness passages to complete this task.

GlowShift Support Center. Remove the boost gauge from its packaging and be certain that all the necessary components are available. You should have a gauge, vacuum line and T-tube. Open the hood of your WRX. Locate the vacuum line that runs off the turbo and cut it at a convenient point. Insert the two ends of the line into the ends of the T-tube.
Insert one end of the vacuum hose for the boost gauge to the remaining head on the T-tube. Run the vacuum hose you connected with the rest of the wiring that runs to the WRX's cabin.
Be sure not to kink--or otherwise twist or break--the tube on its way to the gauge. If the hose is broken, the gauge will not work. Attach the vacuum hose to the back of the boost gauge. Mount the gauge to your dashboard in a convenient but out-of-the-way location. Take your WRX out for a test drive to be certain the gauge is working properly and reading accurately.
Place the gauge into the pod. If the pod requires mounting, mount the pod with a screwdriver using the screws that came with the pod. Route the red wire from the gauge into the fuse box. Attach the wire to the fuse that is marked "headlamps.
Attach the fitting to the connector on the back side of the gauge. Tighten the connector with a wrench.
