just a rule of thumb, let the S/C break in.

boost builds and is not instantaneous. you will have to let it wind out in 2nd gear for us autos. getting a Y pipe will help decrease backpressure. getting an aftrmrkt air filter will also help decrease resistance. and of course an a/f controller

these are some of the things you need to consider to help the car breathe better when driving it harder than normal.

the boost gauge and a/f ratio reader (complete uselessness if from autometer imho) are very easy to install.

gnaw, sorry, the only accurate way to know is buy pluggin in ur boost gauge...if you go back to the dealership they should be able to plug in a boost gauge from like a tundra or something and tell u what you are reading...also the whining noise will happen even if you are getting 0 psi...so thats not a good way to tell...get that checked asap or else your installer will try to make up some bs...L8r, moe

THANKX GUYS...

I was wondering for those of you who have the autometer boost and airfuel gauges and didnt install them yourself how much did you get charged to the install, was it difficult ?

Do you think a newb at wiring like me could do the job, if so any tips or hints....

THANKX AGAIN..
GNAW
