Beetle IC for boost install

[mgranic]

Ok, so I've gone over a couple of guides for installing my boost gauge, but since I have a NB, I'm not sure where to tap for the tube. Everybody mentions the upper IC pipe, but I'm not sure which one it is. I need an educated person to point right to the tapping g-spot for me

Who want to be the man and hit the g-spot?

No kidding...help...

On your pic you have one 90degree big rubber hose that connects up to the intake (right beside the EGR)

Start @ the 90degree hose, follow it toward the front of the car, looks like there is a HARD plastic charge pipe-->Tap here for boost(at least it looks like a hard pipe from here) and then after that pipe another big rubber hose that leads down towards the IC.........

Thanks guys, I'm gonna install it tomorrow.

Jay, where did you mount your gauge in your NB?

Thats the toughest part. I still have it mounted in a "temporary" location to the left of the cup-holders. Once i get the EGT guage, i'll start looking for one of those pod clusters that replaces that removable middle section of the dash. Let me know where you mount yours, i just couldn't find a suitable place!
