Boost Gauge

[ALIEN3T]

Heres a little video of startup

for the price and how good they work, thats why i like the prosport gauges, and they nook like a match off the bat. numbering hide like stock gauges, and color is a very close match.
i see you are runnig hte alarm style one also!

Seems like a good idea but the whole readability of analog gauges is highly appealing. It also help you see what your spikes are hitting. The digital gauge would just give a number but i have a feeling it would bounce around alot making it even harder to read. The prosport gauge really doesnt block anything. Maybe we should figure out how to mount it down by the ashtray.

I was actually hoping a turbo timer would fit where the ashtray is, the boost gauge doesn't look that in the way. What kind is it? And mounting it there, how hard is it to run the wires so it doesn't look all messy and crap.

that wouldnt be that hard to mount, run the wire up the steering column and place wherever, much like a TT. im a fan of a guage that looks like a guage though. if you get anything, for the love of pete, dont get an autometer. i had one, was ok for 5 months, then went to crap, had autometer send me another one 3 months ago and its on its way out too. i have a prosport electric boost now waiting to go in.

I got my from street unit dot com. THere was a group buy which saves like 6 bucks otherwise you can buy this gauge for 79 bucks shipped from Street unit dot com. BTW i figured out how to turn that awfull beep off. Hold the button thru the whole ceremony and let off after the ceremony has finished. It will then do the sweep and all minus the loud beep. YAY.

Thank you for the pics I really apreciate it. I like the way the gauge looks on top of the steering column. I may go this route if nothing comes out within a month or so.

Hey JAVANC, where did you get the gauge cup? The mounting bracket looks better than mine.

It came with the gauge all in one nice little box. It even included that nice little sun visor, optional to put on.

Silly question. What perfomance advantage is offered by the boost guage? Are there other modifications you are making that you haven't stated?

Theres no performance enhancement from this, but it does allow you to monitor your boost levels, which is good for seeing what they are after you have done some performance enhancing mods. More fun that anything.

Who has the Prosport boost gauge and how are they. Do they seem reliable and acurate?

WEAK. I have a ProSport electrical boost gauge! Came with the little visor and all that, but no mounting cup. Lame. I had to buy one of those Autometer ones that sits up too high.
I'll take a pic later today.

It didnt come with a cup at all? i even got the little metal bracket to mount it on the dash. or another bracket to mount it in a gauge pod. wierd. I guess im just the lucky one.
DId you get yours thru str ee t unit dot c o m ?

 

[zoom-zoomhatch]

I'm assming that is the amber/white one? It looks almost as though it matches our stock gauges pretty well.

Nah, ordered it directly through ProSport... I think since yours is the one with the warning light and all that, you may have gotten more for your money. Who knows. Eh, my cup is real CF though (ugh)
