Question RE Amemiya Boost Guage Question

I just bought and fitted this gauge as pictured here:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=2430244680

When i start the car the needle goes downwards into the mm/hg area instead of the kg/cm area (please look at pics to see what i mean!) and it sort of flutters down there.


how do i adjust this to go on the kg/cm or bar scale???

Sorry ignore that, the only problem is that the needle vibrates a lot and makes a lot of noise and its driving me nuts!

Check your fittings? (the vacuum hose, etc)

Damn if you bought it for $279 you should be kicked in the nuts for not looking around for better prices.

i got the pod too which isnt cheap and its a perfect quality fit unlike some of the replicas you have to glue on etc.

Anyway the only part of the fitting i left out was this gold bit?? i didnt know what it was, i just ran the black hose from the spare nipple on the UIM to the back of the boost gauge

One end has a bigger hole than the other
