So I decided Im gonna move my boost gauge to my steering colum so I can watch it with my Attitude better and figured I might as well up grade to a 60 lbs sinse I plan on passing 40 when I get my new turbo, while Im at it.

My question is, are digital gauges as accurate as mechanical? Its not going to give me an "estimated" lbs Like the J/A does is it?

Also, I cant seem to find any digital boost gauges that go over 35. Are they out there anywhere?

ALSO, Is there any reason why a boost gauge couldnt go in a steering colum pod? Digital or mechanical.

 

I like mechanical but I'm kind of old school. I'm looking for a 100 psi guage myself, the 60 ain't cutting anymore.

 

Wow mike haha.. Thats some serious boost!! Are you maxin out your 60 lb gauge?

I came up with a new j-hook on mine and first test hit 32 lbs!
Put my attitude on throttle % and at 60 % on stage 3 was stayin steady at 28 lbs.

Now over the next few days just need to keep tweekin and find that perfect for this HY, 29 lbs on stage 5 WOT.

That should hold me over till new turbo time. Hopefully.

 

i can help you out with the fitment issue ;

i have a mechanical fuel pressure on my steering columnn and it fits fine. i don't see why a mechanical boost would be any different . . .

the autometer pod is quite short for depth behind the gauge. i had to cut the mounting studs a bit to make it fit right, as well as bend the illumination terminals . . . .

by no means did i wreck anything on the gauge, just had to tweak it to fit right . . .

 

Ill keep that in mind Doj. Thanks
