Default Any interest in a digital boost gauge?



Just wondering what kind of interest there would be in a digital boost gauge like the one picture?

This will allow you to quickly glance over to see how much boost your making instead of trying to focus in on each little line while close to red line and also trying to watch where your going.

SWEET! but how much is it? Is there a negative sign when you are making vacuum - just curious how one would be able to tell other than by just the seat-o-meter

Will the price include the 2 bar MAP?

I'm interested, but it's got to be reasonably priced.

Here's some info that I posted on LS1.com -

The gauge will be about $75. and $50.-$55. for the sending unit. You would use a line to read vaccume and then direct that to the sending unit. A wire would then provide that info to the gauge.



A digital fuel pressure gauge will also be available. This would also be about $75. and $20. for the sending unit.



The air/fuel displays 02 MVs. I believe this one will be $99. + $75. for the sending unit.
>>

Not sure what the gauge will read when it's in vaccum. I'll have to check into that and a 2 bar MAP.

I am guessing that it uses a GM MAP from a GN.

The gauge doesn't have a recall feature (that would be nice).

I've been waiting for the verson with the blue readout to become available (another 2-3 weeks) but a shipment with a green readout will be here in a few days. I'm also having some digital nitrous pressure gauges put together. Part numbers and pricing are -

ODYR-10-N20
Digital nitrous pressure gauge (not pictured)
$124.99

SEN-N20
Digital nitrous pressure gauge sending unit
$179.99

looks nice.

What kind of sending unit does the "The air/fuel displays 02 MVs. I believe this one will be $99. + $75. for the sending unit." require? Does it not use a stock 02 sensor?

Ryan.
