HI
Can anyone please direct me to a link or offer detailed advice on how to fit a manual boost controller to my SE. Also where do I plumb a boost gauge and is there a preferred brand.
Cheers
Steven

I'm a big fan of TurboSmart MBCs - see http://shopping.netsuite.com/s.nl/c.830533/sc.10/category.33291/.f
Not a fan of Autometer mechanical gauges though, hate their lighting which only lights from the outer rim, hate the hard vacuum line they use (you can see an example of this in the Boost Gauge Installation link I posted) and hate their brass acorn fittings at the gauge - you need to replace the acorn if you ever want to disconnect it since it crushes in place to seal the vacuum.
See http://www.mazda-speed.com/forum2/index.php/topic,13678.0.html for the best Boost Gauge option.
