Gauges set up!

[RaGwEeD]

The factory boost gauge is known to be innacurate.

I have a boost gauge and fuel pressure gauge in a dual A-pillar mount.

Where did you come through the firewall at? I am getting ready to install Vac/Boost and fuel pressure gauges next weekend. TIA.

Here are mine in my Hellion car .

Steering mount for EBoost and N gauge

N gauge fits snugly but comes out easily as I use it as gauge for more than one car .

Custom mount for oil pressure /temp .
Boost / fuel pressure /E85 sensor below

What did you use to mount them on the steering wheel?

Here you go.
You can choose/mix and match the standard 52 mm or 60 mm gauge pods(for the Eboost).
Mount one gauge or two.

My sound tube is deleted so I came through the sound tube hole behind the gas pedal.

Hi Guys,

i mounted a boost gauge on my 2021 GT, and want to tap into the headlight switch, does anyone know which color wire??
Thanks Anthony

Heres mine

Really like the look of that. How did you mount them behind the face panel?

I couldn't figure it out and didn't want to wait. I used my volt meter and figured out which of the wires going to bulb in the headlight came on when the running lights were turned on and ran a splice from there. No issues so far, it is on glowshift gauges and the wire just sends a signal to dim the gauge.

I'm not using an N gauge to tune my car.. Not sure it would make sense to buy it to use it as a gauge only. Thanks for the suggestion though

It is actually great to use as a gauge. Where else do you get a gauge for almost every pid

 

[Jackson1320]

so you need to have forscan also to use with this cable?

Yes you have to have a membership to forscan. If you have never used it you can get a free trial and there’s much better cable out there if you want but that one will work

What did you tap into for the boost gauge? Was it the headlight control switch by chance?

I use the NGauge (4PID gauge) Speed, KNOCKR, Sparkadvance total & IAT with AFR on the LED gauge.

I enabled the Boost gauge via ForScan.

Works great looks neat.

I ordered a prosport evo premium oost gauge and fuel pressure gauge that I want to install sometime soon. I've read the threads related to wiring for gauges, watched a couple videos, etc. I wanted to ask where you guys were tapping for constant 12v power (or are you running a wire to the battery) and accessory power, and if anyone was actually wiring for the dimmer switch. I see reference to wiring the dimmer switch, but please bear with me as I struggle with wiring. If anyone has an answer or can point me to a thread or something, I would appreciate it.

Edit: they sent me 2 fuel gauges. I guess I have a few days to figure out the wiring while I wait on the boost gauge to ship. Frustrating.
