Gauge Help

Is there anyway I can install a pod that has the gauges like edge or something like that that would plug in to the diagnostic port or computer instead of having to run all the wires for the pyro boost and tranny, what are the normal readings for each one?

this is exactly what you want: Stealth Automotive. Edge Insight Multi-Gauge Display

with the egt probe upgrade youll be able to read egt's, trans, boost and a few other usefull things from this....

we can also get you a pod that will mount it onto the pillar

let me know if you have any questions about it

normal readings is
trans anywhere from 140-190 try to keep it under 210
boost with a tuner you should see mid 20's
pyro anywhere from 800-1200

Stealth Automotive. Edge Attitude/ DashHawk Pod


Your boost will only read accurate up to 24psi of boost and if you ever get a boost fooler the digital boost reading is useless.

so the tranny and boost just hook thru the port and i will have to install the egt probe? how hard is that and do you do it after or before the turbo and how would you clean out the metal shavings?

Easy as pie, drill and tap the driver side manifold. Took me about half hour. I think Tank posted pictures and steps. I'll try to find it.
