Hi, i just got a pivot boost gauge, and it came with this thin black pipeing.

all the instructions are in jap so i cant check but don't you put the T piece near the wastegate? so it gets very hot?

i just wanted to know if i should use it, or throw it and buy different piping that is heat shielded or something? also the T piece they gave me is plastic, could that be a problem too?

Thanks! :D

My boost gauge is plumbed into the factory vacuum line on the driver's side, nowhere near the wastegate. I guess it depends on whether you want the reading to come from the turbo or plenum side, but I've found that with my EBC set to 0.9 bar, the Autometer gauge reads 14psi so it's inaccurate enough to not worry about which side it comes from. As long as it's consistent which it is.
