Default inline vacum filter for map sensor

Does anybody know where I can get a inline vacum filter for my map sensor, and boost gauge.

Just in the middle of a megasquirt conversion and the instructions say I require 1.

Also at idle my boost gauge flickers like crazy till the rev's are increased.

My vacum setup is from the local hydraulics supplier, spring loaded push fit type/

Any help would be great.

Are you running throttle bodies or a plenum ?

Either way this will help

I would have thought it would hold up to the pressure OK, you could always buy a couple and destruction test one with an air line

What MAP sensor does your MS have ?

From what I remember they do not go up to 30 psi as standard...

its got the 21psi map sensor to start with, it can be updated at a later date. When i get bored or a better clutch.

Self distruct test should be easy enough at work with the compressor and tyre gauge lol
