Got a parts order from Orileys at my work and had an extra item in there. A dual pod for my mustang. Guy said it was old stock so freebie. After work went into the shop to say thanks and walked out with two gauges. No real need for them, but its motivation to get my blower build going quicker.

lol They will be hooked up today. I'm not sure where I can hook up the oil pressure line to other than "T" off the factory one on the oil filter plate. And the boost/vac I don't know if I wana hook it up to the factory vacuum lines or drill and tap the intake neck. I saw a flat spot that looks perfect.

You should get an intercooler & mount in your front bumper and some blown 2 v stickers while your at it.


I guess if nobody can see its a boost gauge your good. Amy car shows people see its a boost gauge your going to get ripped.

Pretty cool too get **** for free!!

Free stuff is always cool. Might as well hook them both up just to see what kinda vaccuum its pulling. Then you can see how much better the boost is when you get you blower in.
