Gauges set up!

[Zeb8806]

The factory gauges are not single guages.
They cannot be separated and installed in a vent pod. I hope that answers your question?

Exactly the answer I was looking for. Thank you!

The factory boost gauge is known to be innacurate.

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

Those look nice. What brand are they?

I had already purchased/installed the EcoBoost pod before I heard the same thing, so on the dyno, we hooked up a mechanical gauge. The OE setup was accurate within 1/2 psi

Prosport Evo Premium

Boost/Vacuum and AFR are all I ever need to be readily available to view. Everything else is already built it to view of I need it. Just plumbed up a 2 1/16”(52mm) Autometer Pro-Comp boost/vacuum gauge yesterday. Waiting on the pod to arrive to mount it.

On this topic, I know some have enabled the boost gauge to be displayed on the cluster by enabling it through forscan.

Has anyone mounted a eboost2 controller in a gauge pod setup? it seems like the only available gauge pod setup fits 52mm gauges, however the eboost2 controllers smallest size is a 60mm. I was leaning towards the eboost2 vs boost leash solely for the fact that I could mount it and make it look nicer (I don't like the mounting solution for boost leash) but it seems like I may have to change my decision.

Which pod did you buy?

I also enabled the factory Vac/Boost Gauge from the Ecoboost car through the use of the Forscan tool. I leave mine set there most of the time. The boost I see lines up with what I should be seeing with my pulley setup. I like that it keeps the dash area mostly stock looking. It only takes about a $40 tool that you can buy from Amazon. There's also other cool things you can do with Forscan.

I can enable a vac/boost gauge on my dash??? Would that be accurate? This sounds promising.

I can do this for you to with forscan when we do the Whipple. Or upgrade to the 18 and up digital dash and have a gauge that shows it.

It seems accurate for me. I have a Paxton with the 3.6 pulley. Shows about 11-12 psi at full rpm. You have to get the correct ELM 327 adapter, it has to have the little switch on it. Here is t he one I know works. Its only like $20.

Here's what it look like on my '16 Premium Auto Car.

Oh perfect! As for the 18 and up digital dash..... I want to do it, but I'm scared of how much it would cost haha. I haven't looked into it very much, but sounds like it's close to 2k?
