just looking for any tips or anything i should know before installing boost/pyro/trans temp guages in a pillar pod

 

on the pyro, use some thick grease on the drill bit and the tap to catch the metal, and clean it often. I also used a 21/64 drill bit to drill the hole that way the tap wouldnt have to remove sooo much metal.

use some anti-seaze on the threads of the pyro bolt so it wont rust up. also use some thread lock on the boost bolt to keep it from vibrating out.

past that it's an easy install.

 

If you wrap a short length of insulated wire around your drill bit, and touch the ends to a battery.. one pos, one neg
it will magnetize the drill bit ..no grease required ,and it gets all the shavings..

so the same to your tap ....keep cleaning the shavings off drill and tap as you go

then do the same to a long piece of metal ( screwdriver ) that will reach down to the turbo through the new hole ..
this will get ALL the chips out ,and no messy grease.

tip:
lightly/quickly touch the wire ends to the battery..
use pliers ..it will get hot in a hurry.

if you are not comfortable with this ..then hook a 12 volt bulb in series in the wire ..
then you can leave it hooked up for a few seconds .
