If I don't use a "no-buzz" T-fitting for my boost gauge install, how loud will the buzzing be?

I forgot to purchase one with my last ECS order. 5 frickin' dollas... :-/

Oh well. I wonder if it's going to be extremely annoying.

Default I have a vdo in my 2.7T and no buzz( it's the thin white nylon tubing used)

the rubber tubing gives the buzz.. you can find that line at pep boys (gauge section) look for tubing kit and pick up one of their T fiting with the rubber adapter for that thin tubing .. but u also have more than 10 psi so i'm not sure how that will go..
try that.<ul><li><a href="http://www.egauges.com/vdo_acce.asp?Subgroup=Nylon_Tubing&amp;Cart=">http ://www.egauges.com/vdo_acce.asp?Subgroup=Nylon_Tubing&amp;Cart=</a</li></ul>

Default ALL ABOUT THE BUZZ

When i first put my guage in i didn't use the no-buzz fitting. It sounded horible. Like feed back in the speakers when you rev a motor, but 4x worse!!!!!
I finally shelled out the $$$ for the no-buzz and peace and quite was restored to my cockpit!!
Next time i know to buy the whole thing and not cheap out on my t fittings!!
I just need to make that turbo stop whining and i'll be good!!!<ul><li><a href="http://www.ecstuning.com/stage/edpd/pagebuild_v2.cgi/?partnumber=con%20003&amp;html=learnmore.html">sto p the buzz</a></li></ul>

Default Re: PIC OF MY GUAGE INSTALL

Hey I've always wanted to put a boost gauge where my clock is located inside my dash----was it very hard to get in there or what??? I would like some others but all I really want is boost. If you have a good source for info on the dash removal and fitting a boost in that spot please let me know. Oh and the gauges look NICE!!!

Thanks

Default You have one sick looking interior...

Love the guage mounting spots and the steering wheel. Only wish I had the stones to lose my airbag...

Default I don't agree. no-buzz connector or oil dampened guage.

I had a VDO in my wife's TDI installed with the nylon tubing. Buzzed like a SOB. Get the no-buzz t-connector or an oil dampened gauge.
