I bought a set of banks pipes and spider to use on a 6.0 intercooler I am installing and wanted to know for those who have bought these pipes what is the threaded bung on the hot side short pipe attached to the turbo. Is it for a boost gauge? Thanks.

Yeah, but you dont need it. Just get a plug.

Thanks AlaskaRedneck....I just bought a boost gauge ...is that the best place to plumb it in? I guess it would read lower by plumbing it in the map sensor line.
Thanks

It reads more evenly by putting it in the hot side of the IC pipe, than the map sensor. Mine had the jitters when I put it before the map sensor, but now its pretty even.
