    fogging kit and boost gauge. would it work?

    Can you connect a boost gauge to a fogging kit. My reason for asking is because a tube goes to each cylinder and if you leave the black cap off you have a boost leak. I'm not mechanically minded so would my idea work or should i leave it to the professionals? lol

    Hey Evan,
    The Seadoo fogging kit is generally installed on the throttle body so you lube the throttle body butterfly and shaft as well. Generally you want the boost gauge line as close to the intake as possible to get a true usable boost reading ie off the intake manifold.
    I get what your trying to achieve and in principle should work, possibly using a "T" from the fogging line to the boost gauge. Id personally leave them separate but maybe others will chime in with their thoughts to the contrary.

    Thanks for your thoughts and opinion. Hopefully few other people give there opinions aswell. Would be kool if you could do it though. It would be a very easy mod to do.
    By the way i have the seadoo centre style fogging kit. It has a tube going to each cylinder, all of which are connected with T bars. Maybe that information might help.

    Put one of each of the tubes to the little pipe ends on the manifold having pushed a hole through them with a hot small driver of similar. this stops the plastic fragments dropping into the manifold for you.

    Put a bung on the end of the pipe(single end).

    The OEM Throttle body fogging nozzle is a good ide, but only fitted from recent year models.

    The 3 pipe fogger is a good idea for sure, I have 5 in my place now.

    Unfortunately the OEM fogging nozzle is used for something else on my ski, so I fitted this mod to mine.
