Im not much on this plastic neoprene stuff they give you with the guage anyone here use barbed fittings and vacuum hose for their boost guage?

 

I do.

 

i just run silicon hose to the guage, leave about 2in of the plastic stuff out of the guage and get a small hose clamp and clamp on the silicon stuff and away you go

 

Thanx guys, I was planning on just getting a threaded fitting to fit the back of the guage. The fitting would be threaded on the guage (using teflon tape) amd would have a barbed fitting coming out... Hose clamp the barbed fitting at the rear of the guage and then clamp it at the upper ntake manifold with hose clamps... 3/16" vacuum hose sound right?
