Thanks Fellas


I just figured Id order them from the one I looked at the most, pyro, closest to the cluster, and the go up with em...

Hey Blake that looks great, I just did a insight monitor and pillar mount, I like the looks of yours better but I had to go with what I could afford. Now the Smarty is next.

Blake Clark

Believe it or not, that setup from the DTR store was right at 400 bucks.

Not much more than the Insight.




Thanks for the compliments fellas!

Blake Clark

Got the rheostat in. Worked perfectly. Thanks LD

Might have found what was causing the issues with the boost needle. The ferule in the connection was seated kinda crooked and looked like it was pinching the line. Gonna get a new one at the hardware store in the a.m. Ill let yall know if it fixes it.

I hope you love the autometer guages as well as i do.. Ive had them in all my rigs ive owned and had nothing but good luck, Also i think they are the closest match to factory guages. where is you pyro probe mounted. did your cooler delete come with the plates that was tapped for the probe?

Blake Clark

I do like them, they look great!

Nah, I had already tapped the manifold collector for the edge and have the probe installed there. I think its a more accurate reading that in the plates.

got_soot

could you tell me some of your temps that youve been running. i put mine in the plate and it does seem off. alittle cooler then imagined.

I put EGT where Blake did for my insight as well. I'm showing anywhere from about 600 to 800 crusing around empty and don't really see or let it go over 1000 to 1100 towing if I can.

Blake Clark

Im seeing the same numbers as mega, with around 900 on a decent acceleration run and the highest Ive seen is 1300 WOT


The Edge vs Autometer numbers seem to be pretty close.

Hey, glad you got the dimmer thing figured. The boost problem shouldn't be too jumpy if its analog so the fitting makes sense.

Temps for me are alot like you guys. I have mine drilled just below #3 cylinder outlet and cruising temps are usually around 700-750 mark with no load at highway speed. I don't think I have got it over 1200°F since the deletes.

Blake Clark

The boost gauge has smoothed out some, but is still a lil shaky when it peaks. double checked the line for kinks, there are non, gonna keep an eye on it.

Lil Dog

So is it a buzz at full boost or more pulse like?

Blake Clark

Its not the best vid, but should explain better than words.

The needles sweep is smooth. But when It reaches a peak boost it sits and shakes or bounces.

Lil Dog

Hmm. I see what you mean.. Do you hear any surge from the turbo? That is not typical pulsations, too low a frequency..

Lil Dog

Also if the pyro gets pretty hot in a hurry, I wonder if you have a boost leak somewhere. I would check all the hoses, clamps and intake manifold horn for anything out of the ordinary.
