Hey mate I just put a T piece in the waste gate line coming off the turbo and ran it through the firewall on passenger side. I will post up photos later today if it would help

Yeah pictures would be great.

I think you could T piece into the boost line on the turbo. Not 100% sure though. I put it in IC cause it was up out of the way and looked tidy

Yeah i had a look through your build thread. Your setup looks great but i don't know anyone that can do that for me

i teed mine off the wastegate line too, and the egt probe is in the dump pipe so the pyro wiring and boost tubing both run across the firewall in split tubing and from there i managed to squeeze them into the bonnet release cable grommet and seal it back up with silicon

Here's some pics

Its not very easy to see but I basically cut the line in half, put the t piece in and clamped it then I put a zip tie on the boost line just in case because I had it come out on a the patrol I had previously. Obviously it was a boost leak so it didn't run too well when it came out. I put a zip tie on there and it stopped it happening again.

Thanks for that. Looks easy enough

Yeah its not hard to do. I think I fed the hose through from the engine bay side and then up to the pillar pod for the gauge

Hey mate this is where I ran the boost hose into the cab it's on the passenger side behind the fuel filter
