Hooking up elec boost gauge everything's wired but I don't know where to install hose to elec boost reader.

Btw

It's a rb25det Neo with boost t installed.

Tried putting hose in pipe on pipe just next to waist gate. Didn't work then tried on little hose on back of plenum still no go.

I did search this before asking this but no luck.

Thanks for help.

I think the diagram means to get you boost reading from the Fuel Pressure Regulator.

Either way, this is something you should NOT do.

The boost line you originally spliced into behind the intake to get your boost reading is correct. If this didnt work then your gauge is faulty or you've wired the +ve incorrectly.

I will check tomorrow but like I said one green wire from boost sensor to gauge. And earth and acc power. I used accessory power tapped in to back of cigarette lighter.

Only thing I'm thinking could be I got a dud gauge off ebay.

Stuff elec gauge maybe run out to super cheap in morno grab saas.

      Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

      The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/
