#16055, "where does everyone go through the firewall for their boost gauge?"


          

I just got a greddy electronic peak hold warning boost gauge where does everyone run wires through the firewall. the only places i know of are in the driver side under the wheel well, and on the passenger side firewall near the alternator. is there any other place near the brake and clutch master cylinder where i can go through the firewall?
thanks
james

yeah that is what I did with the GST when we were installing the blitz TT with Boost reading.

Take a sharpe knife and at the lowest point of the steering boot(RRE went a bit higher, but I felt there was something there that can interfer) gently make a X. When you are routing the vaccum wire, make sure it is secured and snugged down so that it does not come in contact with anything that can potentially melt through.

hope this helps out. Here is a pic from RRE to give you an idea.
