{QUESTION} - Where is the best place to tap into the {TERM}?

Hi

I have a digital boost pressure gauge on my engine, which indicates overboosts up to 2.3 BAR. I have connected the boost pressure sensor directly next to the original boost pressure sensor. I thought that's where VW would have done it, so I did the same. The hose to the sensor is about 10 cm long and secured with zip ties (fuel hose with woven covering). This issue occurs both with and without OBD tuning. I heard that it's better to tap into the boost pressure sensor near the intake manifold, close to the exhaust recirculation. Is there something to that?

Thank you for your tips.

Best regards

Tom

In my opinion, it doesn't matter, because the pressure is the same everywhere in the system.

At AGR, it's simply advantageous because you can simultaneously monitor the function of the AGR if it's in operation.
