Hi, I am looking to fir a boost gauge to my 3l hilux Surf with the KZN130 engine but I cant find any information about where to tee the boost gauge pipe into. Could anyone help me out with a picture of where tee the boost gauge feed into. Thanks

Something like this?

Thanks, thats exactly where I was thinking having just downloaded an engine manual! It appears that you have put a tee into the pressure line coming off the inlet manifold to the turbo pressure sensor.

Here's a pic of the 1KZ-TE boost gauge fitting location.

It's not actually a pic of my boost gauge tee piece, It's an image I had in my Surf piccy folder! Looking at it again, it could be a 2.4 engine image, but the filter appears be the same or similar!

Too lazy to snap my own install.

Nev is spot on the money with his image!
