Boost and vacuums patterns
Hi everybody,
I just got done installing my Auto meter boost guage and pod, and I just wanted to share my boost/vacuum patterns to see if they are normal. It looks like I have a nice 10-8-10 pattern when going WOT, but upon closer examination I may have a 9-7-9 pattern which makes me think that the guage might be a lil off.
For the other vacuum reading here is what they look like, do these look normal?
idle: 19 vacuum
cruising: 10 vacuum
WOT -> throttle off: 25-28 vacuum
I didnt hook up the lighting just yet cause I cant figure out where I need to tap the wires into. I got some spare wire, so I just need to find a good source.

run the wires to under the center console. behind the shifter. pull off the console and tap it into the little ash tray light. It has dimmer functions, and easy to get to.
