Title: TDI boost gauge
Post by: Dannyboy88 on February 12, 2013, 08:18:41 pm
Is there anywhere you can plumb the boost gauge into on the BKD engine or do inneedbto get a egr delete with a take off?

You can just tap into the flexi hose after the EGR

Scrap that.... thought BKD was 1.9

From what I've read you can tap into a plastic pipe but this is prone to leaking so your best off with a EGR delete.

Just had a look on their website and it looks like a good bit of kit. Keeps the ASV so that's gravy. Let us know how you get on.

Haha good luck with that. 'No matter how fast you are, there's always someone faster' - see if that phrase saves you the £2K upgrade   :popcornsoda:
