For Product Numbers: GS-3G-01, GS-3G-02, GS-3G-05, GS-3G-06, GS-3G-07, GS-3G-08
1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
Boost Sensor Installation
1. Drill and tap your intake manifold to 1/8-27 NPT, and directly install the
included boost pressure sensor.

Note: Use a vacuum and/or magnet to remove the metal shavings from
inside the intake manifold.

Note: Use Teflon tape on the boost pressure sensor threads before
installing it to ensure a tight seal and no air leaks.
2. Connect and route the boost sensor wire harness from the back of the gauge
(upper right port) through the firewall and to the intake manifold. Once the wire
harness has been run to the intake manifold, simply connect it to the boost pressure
sensor.

Note: When running the wire harness to the sensor, be sure to keep it
away from any moving parts or direct heat source by securing it with
zip ties. Also, when passing the wires through the firewall be sure to
use a grommet to prevent them being cut or damaged.
EGT Probe Installation
1. There are two common types of exhaust temperature probe installations. The
EGT probe should be installed pre turbo; this will ensure the most accurate gauge
readings.

Exhaust Manifold: Drill and tap the exhaust manifold to 1/8-27 NPT.
Directly install the included EGT probe with probe fittings, bushings,
ferrule fitting and nut.

Note: Use a vacuum and/or magnet to remove the metal
shavings from inside the exhaust manifold.

Exhaust Probe Adapter Fitting: You may purchase an exhaust pipe
probe adapter fitting from www.GlowShift.com. This adapter is clamped
and tightened around the exhaust pipe and provides a 1/8
th NPT fitting for
an EGT probe. Using a 7/32 nd drill bit, drill your exhaust pipe. Position
and tighten the adapter clamp, then permanently mount the probe through
the fitting and into the exhaust pipe.
2. Connect and route the EGT probe wire harness from the back of the gauge
(lower left port) through the firewall and to the exhaust manifold. Once the wire
harness has been run to the exhaust manifold, simply connect the white wire on the
harness to the pink wire on the probe then connect the black wire on the harness to
the blue wire on the probe.

Note: When running the wire harness to the probe, be sure to keep it
away from any moving parts or direct heat source by securing it with
zip ties. Also, when passing the wires through the firewall be sure to
use a grommet to prevent them being cut or damaged.
Transmission Temperature Sensor Installation
1. There are two common types of transmission temperature sensor installations:

Transmission Test Port: Most vehicle transmissions come equipped
with a test port location. This may be located on either the driver or
passenger sides of the transmission near the transmission oil pan. The
bolt in this port should be removed and the sensor fitted in its place. The
temperature sensor threads are 1/8-27 NPT, confirm port and thread size
with your vehicle dealer or owner’s manual. Additional adapters will be
required if your test port is not threaded to 1/8
th NPT.

Stock Sensor Location: Use a T-fitting (optional) to T off your stock
sensor location. This will allow you to keep your stock sensor installed,
while also allowing you to install an aftermarket temperature sensor.

Note: Use Teflon tape on the transmission temperature sensor threads
before installing it to ensure a tight seal and no leaks.
2. Connect and route the transmission temperature wire harness from the back of
the gauge (lower right port) through the firewall and to the mounting location.
Once the wire harness has been run to the mounting location, simply connect the
black wire on the harness to the black wire on the sensor then connect the white wire
on the harness to the white wire on the sensor.

Note: When running the wire harness to the probe, be sure to keep it
away from any moving parts or direct heat source by securing it with zip
ties. Also, when passing the wires through the firewall be sure to use a
grommet to prevent them being cut or damaged.
Connecting the Power Wire Harness
1. Connect the gauge’s wire harness to the upper left port on the back of the gauge.
2. Using automotive grade wiring, connect the red wire to a positive 12 volt
constant ignition source. It may be connected to the fuse panel, an accessory wire,
or any positive 12 volt source that is constantly powered.

Note: If you are connecting the red wire directly to the battery, you
MUST install a fuse within 6-8 inches of the battery connection.
3. Using automotive grade wiring (18 gauge); connect the white wire to a positive
12 volt switched ignition source. It may be connected to the fuse panel, an
accessory wire, or any positive 12 volt source that turns on and off with the ignition
switch of the vehicle.
4. Using automotive grade wiring (18 gauge); connect the black wire from the
gauge to any good (unpainted) ground connection. You may also route a wire
directly to the negative side of the vehicle’s battery.
5. The Night Time Dimming feature decreases the brightness of the gauge face by
30%. Connect the orange wire to the 12 volt positive headlamp source. This allows
the mode to be activated when the headlights come on. This step is optional and will
not affect operation of the gauge if it is omitted. NOTE: Do not connect the
orange wire to a dimmer wheel. This will cause the gauge lighting to flicker.
6. To make the wiring of your gauges easier you can purchase an expandable circuit.
This component easily fits into your fuse panel and provides an additional fused
power wire for accessories such as gauges. The expandable circuit is available for
purchase at www.GlowShift.com.
7. Re-connect the negative side of the battery and test the gauge for full
functionality.
