After some problems, my gauges are working fine! I got the Greddy 52 mm electronic Boost and EGT gauges. The green lights look kind of neat and match the A/C and temp controls as well as the Alpine HU.....

 

DAMN that is HOT!!! soon my lancer is gonna need a boost gauge and EGT... is that a custom inster for where the radio normaly goes or where did you get that cluster?

 

looks sweet! Do you have any daytime pics?

The greddy gauges look nice, 52mm seems like the perfect size too!

 

Looks good!.......now just to change that Bar to PSI and GReddy would have a customer.........

 

hottness .just learn how to read in bars Chris.

 

man that's jus very sexy...what HU is that?

 

You mean you cant multiply 14.5 by 1.4 when your about to redline in 4th dodging through cars blowin down the freeway?

 

Thanks, that's the Alpine 9813 HU. The mounting pod is a custom made unit. I was thinking about mass producing them but I have not had much luck in that...

Actually, all one needs to do is to remember where the equivalent bar reading to the max psi one needs to keep. I have my car running at 20-21 psi max, so I look for 1.45 bar.... The gauge is cleverly redlined at 1.5 bar or 21.76 psi, so that really works fine for my EVO. Besides, when your about to redline in 4th dodging through cars blowin down the freeway, you'd hardly have much time to even look at the boost gauge

 

I had posted something like this before.... The HU face plate is off and a plastic "stealth" cover is in it's place

 

For the record GReddy gauges aren't in bar... they in Kg/cm^2. Which 1 Kg/cm^2 = 14.22 PSI.

Anyways, love my GReddy gauges too

 

what kind of probs did u have with the electronic gauges??
i too am having problems with my electronic gauges and dont know what the problem is....

 

Only installation problems. The gauges are great I think I had a bad ground or power connection. Please recheck all your connections. You might want to try different sources for power and earth than those you are using right now....

 

You are absolutely right! I'm embarrased to admit that I did not pay attention to the gauges and just ignored the fact that 1 bar does not equal 1 Kg/cm^2

19 psi = 1.33 Kg/cm^2
20 psi = 1.40 Kg/cm^2
21 psi = 1.48 Kg/cm^2
22 psi = 1.55 Kg/cm^2
23 psi = 1.61 Kg/cm^2
