Can it Log

I sent a message to a few vendors, hope one of them have the answer.

Ok, a vendor just PM-ed me and said YES they can Log! So I guess so! I tried to email Prosport directly but either their web site was down or they were updating it cause the page would time out every time I clicked on the Contact us link. Whoever gets one keep us updated, I'm deployed and will be getting these when I get back and hope to get more feedback before then.

So ive got my gruppe-s panel, my radio is relocated im just waiting now to purchase the gauges. Boost and oil pressure are for sure but the third gauge (keep in mind my lack of knowledge on this), why is afr so important? i dont tune my car personally and for that matter my car has already been tuned by cbrd and i didnt even have a afr gauge. Im just trying to find out why people buy this or how its useful. Thanks

Has any ever replaced the stock MR gauges with the 45mm pro sports. Just wondering if all three would fit, i know there would be some sanding involved...

Many reasons that a person would buy a wideband o2 gauge is to keep an eye on what their fuel mixture is doing. Say you get a bad tank of gas and you get on it and you notice that on full boost you are sitting at 12.3 afr, the second you see that you can get off the throttle.

I have always self tuned my cars so I like to see my air fuel at all times to make sure that my engine is running correctly and that no more adjustments need to be done to my tune.

Read this thread and it will give you a better understanding on why wideband o2 is a good thing to have https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ge...fter-tune.html

Just ordered oil temp, oil pressure and EGT Prosport Premium gauges. Already have the triple dash/console pod and radio relocation kit. Also ordered the necessary adaptors from 42 Draft Designs and the Extreme PSI remote oil pressure sender kit. I'll have everything ready and should be doing the install next week or so. I already have boost and wideband gauges.

Got them done today. The install wasn't bad but I still had my friend do most of it while I watched since I've never done electrical work and didn't want to make a n00b mistake. After watching him, I'll easily be able to do the whole install on my other friend's car in a few weeks. I've driven the car once and everything seems A-ok.

every single prosport ive had has sucked. my evo came with 2 prosport gauges that read off and the other failed to work even after a complete re-installation.

bought a brand new prosport boost gauge, and immediately read 3 lbs off. never wasting my money again.

Gruppe-s pod with boost, oil pressure and digital afr

To get the left gauge to fit I just bent the radio bracket back and shortened the bracket on the gauge itself. It fits well and matches with the trustz gauge overlays
