Got my gauges and pillar pod in. Will be able to get some baseline reading before mods.


One thing that bugs me is that the pyro reads about 80*F just sitting there. Ambient temp is 15*C or 60*F. So its 20*F out. Is this normal? How close are everyone elses pyro gauges?

I am about to take it out for the first time since installing the gauges. How much boost is normal? only mod is a 3" DP sofar.

Fuel Pressure is not completely plumbed in yet. Need to get a hose from the engine to the isolator made later this week. FYI....mechanical fuel pressure gauges are a pain, I wish I'd have gone electric.

 

dirk the gauges look good. normal boost numbers will range fron 15-20 maybe a few #'s higher or lower. i never really payed attention to the ambient temp thru my gauge.

 

X2 on the gauges. I used an isolator for a mechanical fuel gauge in a race car once. I never thought about it in the truck though. Now the gears are turning.

 

Does the pyro ever move fast when you're on it...wow. Uphill, in 4th or 5th to the floor it creeps to 1100* pretty quickly.

Boost is max 15# wound right out, but whats odd is that when I am driviving around town, little load and shifting early, I can hear the turbo but gauge shows nothing. A leak maybe?
