Okay, so I decided to test my boost pressure. Most of these are pretty obvious, but hey, sometimes you don't think about them. Please learn from my mistakes and do it the smart way!

1) As it says in the book, connect the pressure gauge under the hood and run the line and gauge into cabin. Now, I was thinking, "why do that when the vaccum line already runs in to the cabin? I'll just plug my gauge in-line with the overboost switch or turbo gauge in the dash!" This is not smart. Working with the vaccum lines at the back of the pedals will have you saying "I sure wish I was changing the blower motor!" in no time flat! Also, see #2

2) Make sure you have enough line length to put the gauge in a comfortable and readable position. My setup describer in #1 left the gauge hanging upside down underneath the steering wheel. Trying to read it resulted in several near death experiences - see #3.

3) Try to find a straight road. All the roads near my place are curvey and hilly - running on a ridge between Boulder and Broomfield (CO). It is pretty difficult to a) keep your right foot flooring the gas, b)your left foot on the brake with enough pressure to c) keep the car running at 4000 rmp while you d) read an upside down boost gauge hanging between your legs all the while e) keeping from driving off a cliff.

4) Try to find a time without much traffic. 'nough said.
