Boost gauge?????

I was wondering if you could just unhook the factory boost gauge and hook it up to a aftermarket pod gauge. and if they make electrical boost gauges????

actually you can just splice into the vacuum line for the factory gage.....the line is under the dash near the steering wheel....I haven't gotten gages yet so I'm not sure exactly where it is..... Do a search on gages you'll find it...JR

Autozone has a 7/64" female rubber tee that works perfect for splicing into the vacuum/boost line. Here is a detailed step by step posting of the gauge install:
