Got gauges in the mail today any tips on the install

My wife called me and said my package arrived from diesel manor today. I am putting the pillar 3 mount on. I got egt, boost, trans. Any hints or tips to installing this setup. Where did you go through the fire wall at etc.

Thanks

I did the autometer 3 gauge kit, same gauges. They have a good write up on their page too. I got the short sensor and put it in the pressure port in the side of the trans for temp, cut the boost hose by the air box and tee'd it to get boost, and put the pyro in the drivers exhaust manifold elbow down by the oil filter. They also show you which wire to grab for the backlighting. Be sure to goop heavy grease or anti-corrosive or something on the trans sensor so it reads true always, don't use any kind of thread sealant on it going into the trans, you want metal on metal for grounding.
