I'm getting a dynotune on Thursday and my FM issued boost gauge is 20psi limit, does anyone have a suggestion of a compatible size gauge that will fit in their A-Pillar mount that will use the same line (if possible)? I don't expect the gauge will like being pushed over 20psi I'm looking for probably 30psi limit..

Oh wow, I really like those. I'll probably use them for boost, but I wish they had a combo gauge. Something like oil+water temp, so I could get a 3-gauge pillar mount for EGT, Boost, Oil+Water temp...

Check these out for dual purpose gauges.

Stupid question, but where the hell do you buy the VEI gauges? I can't find them on the site.

More options on the left on that page. I am going to buy 4 VEI's to fill my blanks since I have 6 spots and only two gauges. 2 duals and 2 singles. 8 real time engine monitors, holla

Ohhh. Those VEI gauges look good, they don't match my dash color scheme though hmm.

Was thinking they would be mounted on the A-Pillar in the following order, top to bottom;

EGT
Oil+Water temp
Boost / Vac

Not sure though. I need to find a 3-gauge mount..

Edit- The EGT gauge only goes to 1800°F, is that high enough? The ProSport goes to 2400°F in comparison..

Edit2- GWR seems to have a full replacement for a tripod mount for gauges.. I'll have to pick this up as well.

I would just get an Autometer 30psi boost gauge.

EGT is over-rated, north of 1600*f is getting dangerous, past 1800 and it's over for the motor.

I have autometer. cheap, works.

How much power/boost are you going for?

North of 400hp with a bigger turbo towards the end of the season or early next spring, for now I'll go 25psi or 300hp, whichever comes first. If I can, with this churbo of course.

Edit- On an unrelated note, I beadblasted the control arms today. Holy **** that stuff is a fight to get clean.

what about the stewart warner boost gauge? The rest are too common.

Spoke with a few guys at Vei, they offer an EGT+AFR gauge, it's just not on their website. Red 89 / Orange 99 / Blue 109, I think I'll get one. Just gotta get all these sensors and probes now, bah.

Anyone already have one of these VEI gauges? I'm also planning on buying and was wondering how they look/brightness/etc.
