    Boost Gauge Fitment

    So I'm going to fit a cheapo boost gauge off Fleabay purely for gimmicks in my V70R. I've located it on the panel underneath the info/tracs controls (bottom left of steering column) as I don't want it sitting on the top of the dash in the r/h corner, as some appear to do. I'm taking a vac feed off the tree near the throttle body, but where is the best place to run the hose through the bulkhead? 🤔

    Think I ran mine through a large grommet on the drivers side near where the thottle cable fits, as I remember there were spare holes in it.

    About that, be careful with the vac tree on the thottle body, it's only plastic and getting old!
