Can you let Mitsubishi install the gauge then? I am also wondering if you can have them install other aftermarket gauges?

the dealership I got mine from has a performance shop and they install aftermarket parts, they haven't said anything about my gauge, intake or lack of muffler.

I had mine (Greddy Gauge) installed by the Mitsu dealer who sold the car.
The warranty is fine, so no big deal.

Quote: no there should be no problem, i work at a mits dealer and a gauge you will not have problems with as long as you're not foolish and hook it up incorrectly or have some sort of electrical problem because of your install.


listen to this advice... it would not void the whole car, but if improperly installed it will void any parts affected by the install...

It wouldn't affect the warranty here at our service dept.

an aftermarket guage which reads up to 30 psi instead of the bar readout on the stocker would be a good move if you are gonna get a MBC... poeple on here have said the stockers are crap and I tend to agree...

Defi Boost Gauge Problem
I have a defi link BF boost gauge.. well i was tuned recently and the boost reading from the dyno said 23 tapering down.. well the problem is that on my boost gauge it shows just slightly over 25psi.. and 25 on 91 octane isn't too good an idea...anyway I thought defi gauges were supposed to be one of the best.. that's why i bought it... has anybody ever had this problem... i'm kind of worried.. should i trust the dyno gauge? and if my gauge is bad.. will it be difficult to get the gauge replaced. i've had it less than a year and the manual that came with the gauge says warranty is 1 yr..

My Defi boost guage reads +2 psi (actually +1.5 psi), I've heard a lot of people say the same thing so its kind of common.
