Are you sure thats a boost ref port… not the coolant ports? [http://www.tialsport.com/prod\_wg\_mvr.htm](http://www.tialsport.com/prod_wg_mvr.htm) ![http://www.tialmedia.com/random/watercooling.jpg](http://www.tialmedia.com/random/watercooling.jpg) ---

EDIT: GUESS NOT. I see in the pic it says “H2O” on the square machined surface. so yeah i think thats a boost ref like you said. EDIT EDIT: I can see the red bladder in the port too… you are 100% correct plug that ISH! ---

Just looking at that engine compartment makes me claustrophobic. I definitely don’t miss working on cars. Good job though. I’m interested to see how the instrument cluster finishes out. Its a nice change-up from seeing A-pillar sets. ---

The cluster won’t be finishing… No matter how I messed around, it was never going to look like I had hoped. So I started on a completely new setup. [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/my-weekend-full-of-blood-sweat-and-a-lot-of-cursing/263834.md?page=1)
