Currently running a standard pulley on my Magnuson Heartbeat set-up but now want to maybe go to a smaĺler pulley; need to fit a boost gauge to see what I'm currently getting. Anyone know where the 1/8" plug in the blower casing/inlet manifold is that I can plumb into?
Cheers for any help rendered guys - Seasons Greetings from across the pond.

To be honest Trev Im not fussed about a permanent gauge installation- the tech at Magnuson said they would need to know current boost before recommending smaller pulley size. It should be 6.5 lb but according to Mag I might not be getting that due to the CNC heads and l/tubes but Im not sure I buy that. Thoughts?...

I see "Janetty tune" in your sig, if you are using a SCT x4 I think you can display boost on it.

The manifold pressure is available on the OBDII port.

I believe you will need the 3 BAR MAP sensor from a ZL1 for boost.
