I'll try the cigarette lighter since the wire is only so big.
Thanks I'm actually heading over to my buddies to put it on.
I'll post some pics when it's done.
Oh yeah! Is the switch wire mandatory to wire it up?
What exactly is it for?

I dont know if this will help you but my gauge I have it hooked up to the cigarette lighter the ground to the screw thats used for the stereo bracket and the 12v constant is to the power wire for the cig lighter. When I turn my parking lights on the gauge turns on dont know if its different for the G ready one. |

you can try to tap the power wire to any 12v wire and the light wire to the parking lights and the ground its self explanatory and i still dont know the switch one maybe the dimmer switch or something. |

Thanks guys for the help. I wired it up using the cig lighter, power was green wire with white stripe and the one to the bulb was blue with white stripes and the white connector, I didn't use the switch wire and worked fine. At idle vacccum reads 18-20 and currently boosting 10 but creeps to 12  Here are some pics of the gauge and where I mount it.

18- 20 vacuum is normal and normal boost pressure if your running wastegate pressure should be 12 psi. |

Haha, that's my next investment. I need a mbc first and fix one last leak which I'm waiting for a coupler. BUT, my antenna broke, dipstick broke and I got a s.o.b cel. :'( |

No, I hate how gauges on the pillar look and I don't want attention, that's why I have it tucked in. I just got my gauge holder today so that's what's holding it, not a zip tie.
