no problem joe pm me if you need my info maybe on a sat i can help you out . my dad lives in hamstead, but i rarely get time to leave here as im always at the shop. i didnt do the overhead thing i got two on the pillar and i custom made my dash so i could fit more .

thanks jason

 

I am liking that lower dash panel. I am working this weekend so I would have to pass anyway. Maybe we can work something out. Thanks!

 

I got the same gauges and it took me the better part of the day to put mine in. Pretty much standard stuff for the trans temp and the boost. Gotta tell you - scared the hell out of me drilling the manifold for the pyro. But I took my time, and took it slow, held the drill as straight as I could and it worked and has held for several years now. Only thing weird was in their instructions they said to mark up one of the gauge lites with a marker pen to make it darker. I did as they said and it's about right.

BTW, i went with the under dash mount for the same gauges you got and love it. I never did care for the column mounts.

 

Sounds like a good RRE project to me!

 

Love my overhead mount. Most likely you will need to remove the anchor for the rear view mirror and move it down to make room for the pod.

 

Hey Jason - How are ya man! Been a while.......good to see ya

 

Both are easy to do mounts:

 

I done a test fit for the pod mount this morning. It looks like I may not have to move the mirror mount. The only thing is the far pod is partially blocked by the overhead console. I probably will put the gauge less looked at in that spot. It will look awesome when complete.

 

I'd suggest picking up some additional wires that match the wires included in the kit. When I installed my performax gauges, it seemed like they gave me just enough to reach the 4th pillar gauge. I ended up splicing and giving myself an additional 3 feet so all the wiring was loose between each gauge, and enough for when I do my overhead. Obviously ev2's are different, but same concept with wire. Maybe pick up shrink tube, wire looming, a solder torch and decent solder. 5 hour job takes 10 hours when you have to run back and fourth to the store

 

FYI - The EV2's can be "daisy chained" except for the wires coming from the sending unit/sensor. A much quicker install,

From the install instructions:

"Daisy Chain Your Gauges – If multiple EV2™ gauges are being installed in
one location (such as a pod), you may use a single set of the Ignition, Ground, and Dimmer wires to connect all of the gauges. Simply pass the wires from one orange connector to the next one in a “daisy chain” configuration.

 

Just got home from work and looked on porch to find a nice little box from isspro.

 

joe . i had time after i closed to check out the ev2s no problem trans is easy we just need enough wire ,and sender should fit the test port// boost im guessing you got a tee adapter ? gauge should have plastic tubing and fittings from gauge to under hood. easy // egt WHAT SIZE IS THE FITTING ON THE PROBE we need to know what size to drill and tap.and being a auto you got easy access to a hole in the fire wall that i didn't have.i forgot to ask you an important question where are you mounting this stuff? if we get it all straight before it should go fast. wes

 

Trans sender will fit in the tranny test port.

The EV2 boost gauges use an electronic sensor so no boost tube. It will go in the AIH delete plug in the spider.

Drill and tap are included in the kit.

 

Got to admit, that's the best looking install I've seen (over the mirror)

 

I'm sure Claysent everything I need. I know I have a tap for the kit. Its all going in a 3 pod over mirror which I test fit and should not have to move the mirror at all. Where could I pick up some extra wire in case its not enough?
