Was reading the install instructions for my spa guage and it says the best spot for mounting the sensor is between the intercooler and inlet manifold. I dont see alot of room for this to be mounted there and wanted to see what other people did for mounting.
TIA

I don't know if the SPA is any different from other boost gauges, but myself and many others use Ron G's fitting.

That is what I used to mount mine. Mounting the sensors was done with the following: http://huryde.station180.com/gallery/view_photo.php?set_albumName=mikecampbellakaSY2932&id=aae

The clips are fuse holders from a fuse box for 600 volt fuses (had to buy an entire fuse box just for the clips :-?). I bolted mine to a plate and mounted the plate behind the washer reservoir. I also used a short length of silicone tubing between the plate and firewall to dampen some of the vibrations. HTH's
