Where does factory boost gauge read boost? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

So I did the huron speed twin turbo kit, but I have almost everything hooked back up and no boost reading on the factory boost gauge... Does anybody know where it gets the boost reference from for factory gauge?

Sorry I know this is old but I’m having same issues. Where did you get boost reference from?

Yes read it more than once, problem is I’ve converted my zl1 over to a centri blower, so pressure release valve does exist any longer. I have left both wires in wiring harness in case ever needed. I’ve even attempted wiring it back up and ran vac/boost to it with zero luck!

Not sure what intake manifold you’re running but does it have any vacuum taps?

Yea, this could be an option. My LOD had 3 openings on the rear for fittings, and I only had to use 2 of them,capped off the extra one.

So yeah one hell of a delay in response time lol
I was running a modified ls3 intake as I gave up on finding a LOD setup, I broke down and installed a aftermarket boost gauge as I never could get oem gauge up and working.
Since then I.e. now I’m awaiting my Rapid3D intake to arrive and have all the wiring once again laid out over the bumper and in garage floor. I figured I would give it another shot

Do you know which sensor our oem boost gauge gets it info from?
I figured it has to be either pressure bypass valve which I no longer use at all or from the second map sensor mounted in the snout on LSA setup I believe as the 3rd map sensor is only for baro reading but not 100 sure on any of them
