I live in CA and so I prefer not to buy an A pillar to mount gauges because the first thing the po-pos notice is gauges and intercoolers.

Right now I just wanted a basic air/fuel gauge and boost for the PE kit im buying. I think im going to go with the AEM UEGO mounted in the nav cubby so i can cover it up and then the Blitz Dual DCIV Turbo timer/digital boost controller mounted under the climate controls.

Does anyone have the Blitz Dual DCIV or know anyone that has used it before? It seems like a great idea for me because i prefer digital readouts over actually reading where a needle is pointing to on a gauge. I think it's part of the whole digital clock general thing, most people my age are so accustomed to reading digital clocks that we don't read analog (?) clocks as fast as other people.

Thanks,
Alex

 

A buddy just installed that Blitz unit and in case you dont know it reads in kpa not PSI. Better get used to the conversion...

 

Well i figure if im going to run the same psi i would just verify the initial calculation as being in sync with the kit's rated psi and then if i saw it get significantly higher or drop i'd know to fix a problem.

If i was running a boost controller or different maps and stuff like that i would stick with something straight forward.

 

have you thought about the zeitronix gauge.www.zeitronix.com.

 

If you have a nav screen that will take an aux input you could get the HKS CAMP system. http://www.z1auto.com/prodmore.asp?m...gmt&prodid=582

 

^ I thought HKS discontinued the CAMP system. Great concept.

 

Its still on their webpage:

That HKS Camp system is sweet, but i dont have a nav screen and im not looking to spend that much just for a boost guage. If it was compatible with an air/fuel read out i'd consider it.

I'll read into the zeitronix

 

get DEFI gauges and mount them in the stock location of your 3 gauges on the center consol!! looks sick

 

+1. Or do the camp unit

Would love to know who sells it?

 

I can get them or Z1 can.

Hmm, I was told by a distributor it was discontinued. Only the accessories are on the HKS site? Pm me a $.

 

here's what I did:

I bought the Navdoor for a touring that way it slides in instead of sticking out. Defi Boost Guage and AEM A/F

 

^Mrtomcat i really like that install! Did you make that plate to go over the cubby yourself? Interested in making another for a price?

Also i would rather keep my oil and voltage gauges, good idea though.

 

you can get this from Crawford

Thanks! I'll definatly call them tomorrow for an order.

What do you guys think is the best boost gauge?

Defi? Apex'i? HKS? Blitz? Autometer? Greddy?

Does it really matter?

Edit: saw some of the new SAGA gauges and they look super nice.

 

don't know if anyone's tried them, but the epod might be nice...

I read horrible reviews about these

 

I hate gauge pods too
