In
Dash 20 PSI Boost Gauge Kit With Optional "Peak Hold"
The kit includes everything you need in order to build your
own accurate (+/- 0.250 PSI) fully functional turbo boost gauge
customized for the Turbo Diesel Cars.
It takes the signal from a fast and accurate external computer grade
pressure sensor,
monitoring boost pressure "Real Time". Results are reported on
20 LED indicators with an accuracy of approximately +/- 0.250 of a PSI
when installed and setup correctly. Each LED corresponds to an actual
boost reading 1, 1.25 or 1.5 psi depending on unit selected.
The Programmable Peak Hold
tm Option is available on request.
It includes user selectable modes configured with an external
switch, potentiometer and/or a fixes resistor. A single indicator
remains on for a programmed amount of time indicating the Peak Boost
Pressure reached. If a higher boost is recorded before it is reset
it moves to the higher reading. Spikes can easily be monitored and
boost peaks tracked efficiently.
Programmable Peak Hold Modes
Available:
-
Indefinite
Delay/Decay (Peak hold remains on for a long
time before slowly decaying)
-
Pre-Set
Delay/Decay (Peak hold remains on for a fixed
time before decaying)
-
Variable
Delay/Decay (Peak hold is adjustable via an
external potentiometer)
-
Reset (Peak
hold is reset to zero by an external switch)
-
No Peak Hold
(Peak hold feature is switched off by an
external switch)
Indicator
colors can be customized in any combination of
Red,
Green,
Yellow,
Amber
& Blue.

& 206 Degree Designs
The unit also includes custom
"Dimmer" technology that automatically dims the indicators for night
time driving to an adjustable pre-set level, when you turn on your car's master light switch. The
night time brightness can be adjusted to suite individual
requirements.
An accurate
"Real Time" boost gauge is
an absolute must, especially if you have done any non stock
performance upgrades to your car. Such as; installing a new chipped
ECU, increasing turbo boost settings, adding boost controllers etc. Calibration is
easy to do and default components are provided for sea level
operation. The circuit is flexible enough to be configured for any
altitude if needed. You can
mount the Indicators anywhere you like. But we recommend putting them
in the existing tachometer dial in your car's instrument cluster.
This is not too difficult to do and is discussed in detail in a
dedicated article on this web site under VW
Jetta.
Yes, they can be fitted right into the
car's dash board. The control unit is so small it can easily
be concealed behind the dash.

Boost Gauge Complete Installed in Your Car's Stock Instrument
Cluster or Tach Dial (Prices
on Request)
This is a custom made completely
finished & tested Digital Boost Gauge installed in your car's stock
instrument cluster. You just ship us your stock cluster, and we
install the complete gauge for you. The attractive and subtle 1.8m
indicators are exquisite, and look as if they were installed at the
factory. All you have to do is re-install your cluster, connect up the
power, dimmer control wire and pressure sensor signal (or tee optional
high pressure sensor into you car's vacuum line at a suitable point)
and you are done. You also get a fully assembled and tested Digital
Boost Gauge Control Unit (DBGCU), mounted in a convenient compact
black enclosure approximately 3.1" x 1.5" x .7". All wiring from the
box to the cluster is complete. You will not need to do any soldering
to install this unit. Shipping charges depend on your level of
urgency, and are charged at actual cost. We like to say that we
require a week to complete the installation. Most are complete and
ready for return shipment within 4 days, weekends included.
