    Best Location To Hook Up Boost Guage Hose

    in Engines & Forced Induction

    Posted

    This has been covered SO many times, try searchin in future, but here we go.

    1. Tapping ANYTHING in to the boost line to you FPR is a VERY bad ieda, you want your FPR to react as quickly as possible, hence why they have a very short line from the plenum, by adding extra hose your are duling it's response.

    2. The easiest safe place is T from the line that runs to your factory boost/MAP sensor, little black box on the firewall drivers side. Well hats the location on a R32, not 100% on it's location for a R33, but you'll find it.

    Oh and i should revise those directions, the distances are way off, i almost gave up, i thought I'd gone past it.

    1. The turn-off is almost 10km past AIR, not 3km, you just need to look out for the "4WD blah blah hire course" sign (summin like that).

    2. It's at least another 5km down the seeled road, and there's no sign, you just keep going until there's no sealed road left then turn on to the right-hand dirt road.

    3. Those with low cars and hard susp, take it real easy on the road to the office, HEAVILY rutted and pot-holed.

    Nah i just went to check it out, i left straight from work so there i was standing in a dirt bowl in a shirt and slacks, to say i was the odd one out is an understatement. :angry:

    Very much a "backyard operation" but i guess the price is low, the course looks pretty goo but you have to be careful about where you run off as the tyres can and did cause a bit of carnage to bodykits.

    Kinda funny really, cause it wasn't me, but a blue ceffy was the first car out there, 2/3 of a lap down smashed his rear bar but didn't realise and kept going. Then his missus took it out, understeered it on the big sweeper, smashed off the front bar and got beached on some tyres. Had to get pulled out.

    Directions for the peoples:

    1. Travel down Pt Wakefield Rd, about 4km past Adelaide International raceway, then turn left at the Pt Gawler turnoff. Watch your speed as its easy to miss.

    2. Travel down the sealed Rd about another 3km and turn right at this sign onto an unsealed Rd.

    3. Travel about 200m's down the unsealed Rd and you will arrive at the Office.

    Apparently "this sign" is just general signage and you shouldn't be able to miss it.

    I'll be heading there after work and will probably be around for the 6pm kick off, if not then a little later, any other SAU-ers dead set going?

    That link didn't work but i found them anyway:

    FC-280SC

    FC-280SA

    Drilling in to the hosing wouldn't be a good idea unless you could remove it first, definately don't want metal filings in the bushes, or on the magnets.

    How about this one:

    FK-280SA

    It has the holes and the terminals are at the rear, but they're tabs and stick out.

    But it's all moot unless you can find a dealer, their sales mob look really only geared up to sell in bulk, bummer.

    Google turned up this place:

    Maybe drop them a a line?

    This thread mentions a supplier in the US of similar motors:

    This seems to imply they're used to power small RC/Scaletrix cars:
