BS3 users come in

Are you using your factory guage cluster( if so, was it hard to wire up) or a custom one? Thanks

I'm running mine as a standalone, and not a lot of factory gauges are working right now. I'm going to make a custom gauge cluster in the next 4-5 weeks.

You can get your factory stuff to work, some of the gauges are straightforward.

Sure. I ordered the abs plastic sheets today. I'm going to do mine like Danimal's Cobra... Move the tach in the center and then have the other guages on each side. If you plan to go piggyback you won't really be touching a lot of those gauge wires so you really only have to worry about a few wires.

Magnus and Intmd8 are working on that 3 bar setup for HPTuners + FI setups. Got it working with 11psi so far and the results are very promising.

so this new feature actually reads boost and can correct fuel and timing in response? So you can have one tune and just turn up the wick?? HP Tuners rocks!

The 3 bar would read boost/map, and then you would tune your car by using the VE tables.

But in relation to boost/vacuum right? wow. the stock pcm has come a long way. How close are we to pointing to an a/f and having the software get you there on its own? Too cool.

I will say this though. meaney got it right by controlling the 80E. That trans is bad ***.
