I installed a NewSouth 0-35psi boost gauge, and am not getting a reading at idle. At about 2000 RPMs, I can see the gauge move a little off of zero.
I double checked the pressure line from the fitting on the intercooler pipe to the guage, and do not see any kinks or pinches. For the intercooler fitting, I drilled and tapped a hole to install the fitting that came with the gauge. I installed the fitting on the hard plastic pipe that runs by the cam belt cover before the 90 degree bend into the intake.

Is this the proper place for the fitting?? Anything else to check? Maybe the 90 degree fitting on the back of the gauge?
