Can EZ pressure been seen on a gauge?

I've got an Edge EZ 1000D, and just recently installed the DiPricol Rail Pressure gauge. Question is, while going down the road, cruise control on, flat ground, when I change the settings on the EZ (1, 2, or 3), should I be able to see rail pressure "jump" with each setting? Seems to stay the same for all positions... I'm thinking there's a bad connection in the harness, but wanting to get some advice. --Eric

It will be a lot easier to tell at WOT.
 
if your putzing at 55mph, your not making enough boost, or even using enough rail pressure for the EZ to do anything useful.



if you running at 20,000psi, and flip the switch, you'll see it move around. . that's at least 65-70mph. .



Also, and more likly, ensure your rail pressure gauge IS FIRST. . ensure it is the first plug in the map sensor. Then connect the EZ to the other end of the rail pressure plug, then connect the stock factory plug.



RailSensor --> Diprocol guage --> EZ --> Stock harnsess



If this is true, your not going fast enough :) or somethings br0ke
 
The only way to see what actual differences the EZ is making would be to remove all the boxes and downloader, then get a baseline of rail pressure stock. Need baseline on hard acceleration from x to xx, normal crusing speeds, etc. Then install the EZ and see what variations the EZ alone makes to rail pressure based on the baselines. Too many variables with a triple stack. I can see more max rail pressure on my triple stack when on EZ level 3 than EZ level 1. But need hard acceleration to see the higher max rail pressure. Just my . 02.

I assume you have the Gauge on the sensor then the EZ on the gauge right?



I could easyly see the difference when my EZ was on... (27k easy!)
 
Thanks for the replies. Yes, I have the gauge connected first, and then the EZ. After looking at things, the little green connector that joins the in-cab switch to the box has been tampered with. Looks like it came loose before (the holding tab is broken, and the shrink wrap is pulled off), and I'm suspecting some wires are not making good connection, or have been put back in the wrong location.



I'll play around with the wiring and see. I was thinking that at 75-80 mph steady cruising on the interstate, you could flip between 1, 2, and 3 on the EZ, and see rail pressure jump maybe 1-2k psi each time. Thanks! --Eric
