cheers for that mate . ive gone for attaching it to the fpr . taking the original pipe sticking the t piece in it , then a piece of tubing to the regulator . then the hose to the guage .. does anyone know if this comes under much heat ? do i need to use really thick silicone tubing to attach it cheers

i was fitting my autoguage (boost) yesturday, attached to the FPR through the bulk head etc beside the main wiring loom. when i turned the car on the EPC light came on then the Engine light (not flashing) whats this about? would it be because i hav'nt wired the guage yet? or have i done something?

naw they are staying on, just the EPC and engine. i connected to VAG COM and it told me accel position sensor reading to high, and the other was some voltage to low fault, i cleard them and the engine light went off but epc still on, cud i have nicked a wire or something maybe
