Default How to Section

I think we should have a how to section so people who added a boost gauge, EGT gauge etc. can show people how they added it and help other who want to do the same thing

Good idea. Ed from Florida made PT Do It Yourself .net for this exact purpose.

How did you choose to hook up the EGT? What I mean is where did you put the probe? How did you determine the hottest (Leanest) place to put the probe?? Did you have to weld on a bung??

I have a EGT in my drag car amd you tap a spot in the manifold, usually runner 1 because that is usually the hotest, and screw the probe in with anti-seize paste.
The installion guide won't tell you how to hook up the power for each individuall car. For the gauges I want to install, you have two power inputs 12V constant and 12V that turns on when car turns on, and if you only want the gauges' lights to go on when you turn the car lights on that has to be spliced with different wire also
