I've happend apon a cheap boost gauge that messures up to 30+ & -. I'm wonding if this is enough to messure the vacuum pressure. I'm worried that it won't. I just want to know the deference in pressure as the rpms go up or down.

Or would it just max and that be the end of it? QUOTE(Jaws4God @ Oct 16, 2006 - 8:18 PM) [snapback]492415[/snapback] do you all have a pic of how to run the hose to read the vacuum? i'm not sure how to do that when i get the gauges... what about the volt? thanks! I will let you know as soon as I put it on. I might even strap a leaf blower on there to see if I can create positive pressure, just for kicks. I'm also going to test my ram air system, vs just my short ram intake. I hate how those are named the same. I think this gives me the chance to really play with things. EDIT: Jaws, what do you mean by volt? Do you mean my volt gauge? Because I don't have it on yet either. If you're talking about power to the gauge, I'm just going to tap into the fuse box and use the gauge light fuse.
