Got them all working except the pyro, need to tap the manifold yet but ran out of time. I have heard people talking about bulb covrers or something to change the illumination color. Any tips on that?



Now I gotta try not to wreck since I am looking at them all the time. Right now the max boost I have got it to is 19lbs.

Looks great! How do you like the tach? I need one in mine and am leaning towards the Isspro.

Well, it has only been in the truck for about 12hrs now, but the install was simple as pie on my 93. I went ahead and got their cable just to make it simple. Nice sheathed 4cond cable with ends done one one end for ya. Still had to buy some ring terminals for the back of the guage which I thought should have been included.



Only thing about the tach I have noticed so far is that this morning when it was cold it fluttered alittle for the first minute or so.



They (pdr) sugested the 40lbs "manifold press" guage instead of the 30lb "turbo boost" since they are basically the same price.



Got the mount form US Gear. The cables run down the right side then under the dash. Gotta get a piece of split loom to slide them into and make it look neat.

If your wanting bulb covers. Here is a link to the Autometer covers.

Looks good, only I would have suggested a 60psi boost gauge, once you start bombing, someday you'll need more than a 40psi gauge. Did that tach plug in under the dash at the oem tach hookup? I'd like to get a 2" tach like that and sell my 3 3/8" alt tach. Run with them awhile before you buy the cheap bulb covers. You may like the way they look. EV's are bright though.

The EV line is too bright. My truck has five gauges and I can't see the road at night. I painted all my bulbs which really helped. Just for fun, perhaps I'll install the little bulb covers



My 30# gauge was worthless in one years time.

I'm just about there myself... and I haven't even bombed that much yet.

I might play with the pump alittle, but don't wanna go to far. Just needs enough power to pull my jeep around. from Ks to Utah will be the big test!

Nice Gauges

I keep pegging my little 50# gauge. I don't know what my mechanic did. I guess that extra turbo helps. :-laf :-laf I have all isspro gauges and I had to order a 80# isspro Ev gauge. I couldn't find a bigger gauge without getting the EV style one. I am going to use my 50# gauge to monitor my bottom charger. When we were tuning it the bottom charger was making 32#'s of boost.



Yeah once you start playing you can never get enough. Some one will have to bring this post to the top when ARhine starts another thread that will probably read something like this"I just buried my 40# boost gauge. " LOL I like your set up it looks nice.

Just go to a local craft store, and get some $1. 50 glass paint in a kelly green. Pull the bulbs and paint them; let dry and paint again, and again. I used 4 coats to match my dash lights. Works great, and no melty bulb covers to worry about.
