Helped install a boost gage from a mfgr called Omori Meter in a 96 talon awd and had a heck of a time trying to decipher the instructions. Seems like our friend vts helped with the translation:

REQUEST FOR CUSTMERS
*Don't give strong shock or loose nuts of rear.
*Most trouble are occured by custmers, especially at install.
*Don't dis-assemle or process meter and sensor, if should do, we have no guarantee
*Don't tighten screw too strong, if should do, it occurs trouble meter and pannel.
*If electrical curent fruns straight to sensor terminal, sensor is destroyed.
...

[HOW TO INSTALL ENGINE SIDE]
1) Install meter where don't disturb driving.
2) Dig hole or use partition board of engine room (about 15mm) more. ! To protect rubber hose, use busch to hole.
...
5) Take care not drop rubbish powder.
...

[HOW TO INSTALL METER SIDE]
1) At circuit box rear, put on magic tape etc. make fix, avoiding disturb place for driving.
...
3)
(2) Check LED (Orange) put on fol cases.
(1) Sensor wire cut.
(2) Sensor is destroyed if mistake connect wire, sensor will destroyed.
...
(4) Switch ON, (3) put on, indicate always peak temp, if ignission key make off, memory erase.
...
(6) Warning set switch, Only operate swithc on (7), to set exhaust temp warning. Note: When On, exhaust temp indicate set temp, don't measure, after set is over must Off.

Turbo Meter (HOW TO INSTALL)
...
6) If from surge tank or intake pipe rubber hose don't come out, use optional (damper nipple), dig PT 1/8. Take care not drop cut metal powder in engine.

*Many sockets and nipple are kept in stock, please ask to our agent.

And even after warning me in 2 places I think I still mistake connect wire and now sensor will destroyed. But the boost gage seems to work (it goes up when I press on the gas) and the exhaust gas temp indicator works (albeit only in Celcius), so I don't even know what the sensor I think I destroyed is supposed to do. Oh well, not my car. It's a nice gage though, here's the web site if you're interested.
