how to install new guages?

[wickedplastikman]

i just bought some new gauges and i dont have any instructions on how to install them. i am trying to install a tachometer, oil pressure, oil temp, boost, egt, and air/fuel mixture gauge. does anyone know of any links to get some directions? i have done some searching, but couldnt come up with anything.

your best option is to search google with the manufacturer name. they may be slightly self expainitory. boost usually just has a hose that enters it from the intake pipe. the wires would be for the light. taches sometimes connect to the coil, depends on the style, these need power though, same with the air fuel gauge. you need a source of power, the O2 sensor reading and ground. who made the gaugues you have Autometer?

no they are r1 gauges. the spectrum series. these are the gauges that change color as the rpm's go up. there is a control module that controls the lighting, and all the wires to that have a little harness. i just don't know what i have to tap into to get these gauges to read. do i unplug my tach and splice into those wires, to get this tach working? and so on.
