Best place to pull wiring through engine bay?

Postby tangcla » Tue Oct 07, 2008 5:19 pm

So I got my boost gauge - looking to pull the wiring through into the cabin.

Where's the best place to pull it through?

Just above your brake pedal there is a grommet.

Have a look from the engine side where the cables go in.

Push it in...yes....all the way in so it comes out the other side.....then...pull it out. (Cmon I am talking about the cable)

Takes literally 40 seconds to do.

Thanks Mick. I got a boost gauge and an EGT gauge to pull through... at some point... when I can be bothered.

I need some 4mm hose though. Stingy Defi only supply 0.5m, that's not enough for anything!

You can also use the factory point (where the ecu cables go thru), there's enough room there for 0g cable - this is where all my cables go thru.

Its located just under the passenger strut tower.

Could also go through the aircon grommet on the passenger side of the firewall, look for it from the engine bay...

I found the spare grommet next to the brake master cylinder :) I poked it in through there.
