The boost sending is a MAP (Manifold Absolute Pressure) that goes in a braket behind a top engine. There is a connector with three pins (ABC) and a hose connecting the MAP to exaust system.

check your fuel filter.
A boost gauge in an internal combustion engine has the role of a pressure gauge. The gauge indicates the manifold's air pressure or a turbocharger or supercharger's boost pressure.
The gas gauge sending unit would be located in the fuel tank.
Sending unit is in the gas tank attached to the fuel pump as an assembly.
Boost is positive pressure in the manifold, so you only see boost when you give the gas pedal heavy load. The best way to check the boost pressure is to connect a vacuum hose to a boost gauge. This will tell you the exact boost pressure when you are in wide open throttle.
supposedly there is a cover in the trunk that you can remove to access the top of the fuel tank to replace the fuel pump and sender
Yes, the easiest way to hook up is to cut the vacum line about 3 inches before the map sensor. use a rubber vacume "T" adaptor reconect your original line to the strait poetion and your boost gauge to the leftover.
Should'nt be that tough. You have an access cover in the trunk under the carpet on the right side. Pull out the fuel pump and the fuel guage sending unit is part of the assembly.
How to install a boost gauge in a acura integra?"
Actually a supercharger has a bypass regulator. this means that your RPM does not control when your s/c will boost, but in fact how much throttle your giving the car does. This means you can give boost off the line, or hold your foot off a bit and save the boost for a kick later. Normal around town driving your car should stay in the negative 10-5 lbs range.
Signs that your supercharger may be going bad include unusual noises like whining or grinding, decreased engine performance or power, and increased fuel consumption. You might also notice a drop in boost pressure on a gauge if your vehicle is equipped with one. Additionally, check for any warning lights on your dashboard or oil leaks around the supercharger area. If you experience these symptoms, it’s advisable to have the supercharger inspected by a professional.
It has several sending units such as a fuel gauge sending unit, oil pressure gauge sending unit, temperature gauge sending unit, need to know which one you are looking for.
