Hey all,
I just bought a new Hallman Pro MBC along with a Turbosmart boost gauge to put on my '94 850 Turbo. Now, I'm curious as to how others running mbc have set up their gauge, as disconnecting the lines from the stock boost control solenoid cause the stock gauge to quit working. This means you can't splice into the factor line for the stock gauge as the IPD kit does... So I'm guessing I will need a T - fitting in one of the vacuum lines. Just curious as to where exactly it would go? Or if there is another way that it needs to be setup? I currently have to Hallman installed with the compressor line hooked to the inlet and the wastegate hooked to the outlet. The intake vacuum ine is capped off and no lines are hooked to the stock solenoid. Any help with this from people running a similar setup would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Chris
