Boost help

[chevhead]

Hey everyone,
I was wondering if someone could shed some light on where I can locate my boost sensor, I have been looking for the darn thing all day, and am lost when I look at all the wiring in the area I have been told I can find it. I don't want to sound dumb, but it if you could explain it in great detail I would appreciate it.:D

Hey chevhead what do you have for a truck???? All the boost sensors I have seen are on the upper half of the intake manifold. You have to pull the top engine cover (the thing that says TUBRO POWER) off, its under the cover! It is a black box about 1 1/2" by 3" by 1/2"with wires coming out of the top of it. Its about 8" to the right of the hose coupling the turbo to the intake manifold. Go to SSD Supply find the part under sensors and there is a picture of it. Good Luck!

The truck is a 2000 3500, and I'm just getting started on the mods, but unfortunately still in college makes money tighter than a tick on a dog.

This is a little off topic but i have a boost sensor on my 6.5 intake i bought, can i use that with an electronic boost sensor gauge? if so how would i wire? Or should i just pull out the temp sensor and put a manual boost/vac gauge in?

My mistake, as it sits on the manifold the wires are on the under side, sorry about that.
