Default boost gauge wire through where???

my stri gauge finally came in. i mounted it on the top left of the dash, right above that vent, on the pillar with the pod that came with it. my question now is,

where do i run that wire and how...

can it go through that little top vent, or somewhere else? how easy is it to feed through into the engine bay?

thank you in advance

Rite behind the brake pedal there is a rubber grommet push on it and it will fall out to the ground under your car, that opens a direct hole through the firewall. Drop the boost wire from somehwere behind the intercooler to the left of the windshield washer tank go under the car and just put it throught the hole, its right next to where the steering linkage or whatever its called comes through. Once you get it through the hole put a slit in the rubber grommet run put the wire through it put it back on and ur good to go. I just did my defi's this weekend, by far the easiet car i have ever had to to run a wire through the firewall.

Nice job bro! Could you post some pics of the gauge, I've never seen the stri gauges before.

Talking Re: boost gauge wire through where???

Would you happen to have a copy of the manual for the STRI boost guage?
