S60RDUDE Posted December 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2006 So after much of this thread getting out of hand I am glad it can finally come to a close. IPD is a great company no doubt. I was wrong to start the post I admit that, sometimes frustration and expectations can get the best of you. Their kit worked with some modification. Do I think it could be better?.. Yes the tube should be longer 6ft is very snug, could have a better quality line, and their fittings though good could be better. I am still not sure why they include so many with the kit but whatever I got it on and works perfectly. The VDO gauge looks nice, functions and seems to be accurate. I have 20 Vac reading at idle and I hit 13-14PSI when "romping" on it. For my 98 Going right to the Vac tree works perfectly. I had to use some vac line to plug the tub into the tree, I even used an OEM hose clamp to ensure it stays on. Once you get it routed through the firewall it is all gravy. I took my time used solder, heat shring for the spliced lines. I soldered directly to the headlight swtich harness. Anyway if anyone else has questions about the IPD kit and install hit me up. Thanks for all the feedback now close this beeotch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uwackme Posted December 29, 2006 Report Share Posted December 29, 2006 Where exactly did you feed the vacuum line through the firewall? Are you mounting it with a pillar pod? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NW T5R Posted December 29, 2006 Report Share Posted December 29, 2006 Where exactly did you feed the vacuum line through the firewall? Are you mounting it with a pillar pod?There are 2 places that you can feed through the firewall, drivers side and passenger side. Drivers side would be the easiest to use for this application. Do a search on firewall access. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S60RDUDE Posted December 30, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2006 Well I couldn't actually get through the rubber boot properly I ended up puncturing it with a long screw driver (vac line taped to the screw driver) only made a small hole and worked fine. The VS way is much better but I couldn't do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
