Boost/vacuum gauge in gauge mode?

[cp5899]

I saw in boost works Kenny bell video that they had a boost/vacuum display in the center screen gauge mode. Is this an option I'm not aware of?


Thanks

I actually seen the same thing and wonder the same... I was going to post the question a few days ago lol. Thanks for asking!!

On the non PP GT its one of your gauges when you go to the gauge screen, not an option, its standard.

LOL

Why would it be standard on a non pp gt and not on the gt pp. That sucks because i don't have it and I don't want a pillar gauges. Now my only option is to pull the dash apart (don't want to do) in order to change the vac gauge out for a Eco boost vac/boost gauge.

Total pita!!

PP has a vac only or it may go to only 5psi or so? I dont remember, maybe someone who has one can chime in.

I have one and it goes to 25 vac to 0.

Thought so. I guess your question is answered. I do know that in the PP they removed the digital read out from the instrument cluster and added the actual gauge to the dash, I guess they thought 2 of the same gauges would be redundant :shrug:. I wonder if a tuner like the SCT would be able to add in the digital gauge? One good thing about the PP is that you get an oil pressure readout where as the non PP just says low, normal, high:headbonk:

Even if we could just get the ecoboost boost gauge in the pp gt that would be nice but I haven't found a price in it yet.

GTPP guys, what is your normal vacuum reading? I think I'm around 20 inches at idle and 24 inches when decelerating in gear.

 

[cp5899]

Normal as in "at idle"?

I don't remember, but will look next time. Every once in a while I look over to see what it's doing and its all over the place if I'm in and out of the throttle. The vacuum gauge is not of much use, but if I switch it out with an eco boost gauge and add a supercharger it will be great. I have had a pillar gauges for 15 years in at least one of my cars. It would be nice to have a factory style in dash gauge setup. One thing I like about the pp package. Just need to swap that vac gauge out.

I have been looking for the ecoboost gauge let me know if you can find prices on it.

yes that's how ive read my boost gauges in the past. normal idle, max vac when decelerating in gear, and max boost.

on my wrx it was 21 inches at idle, 26 inches max vac when decelerating, and whatever max boost was at the current tune, which was 19.5lbs when i was was running E85.

 

[cp5899]

It looks like 20 inches of vac at idle (warm) and 25ish on decel.

cool thats about what im seeing too
