boost gauge
 
can someone please recommend a boost gauge that would look like a stock gauge (needle and red) that would replace the clock? Also one for oil pressure...i just got my 2010 supercharged and i'm a bit lost as to where to look for this stuff...

The center stack gauges are one piece and they will all have to come out to replace one. I have defi boost, oil temp, and fuel pressure gauges there and am happy with them

the gauges look great in the dash but if you ever want to go ecutek, then don't remove your factory gauges. get a piller gauge pod.

Are you saying this because of the features where ecutek uses the factory gauges for certain things??

Yes....EcuTek hacks into the stock oil pressure gauge with the Race ROM Controller (RRC) to advance and retard the VTC Variable Intake Cam Timing....if u change out ur stock gauges u won't be able to use this feature

Here's Sebs vid on it from Specialty Z so u can get an idea of how it works...

Yea but, isn't he just hacking it to display timing? so you could replace it with another oil temp gauge and it'd do the same...

Not really. The triple gauge isn't like a normal gauge. There's more to it than that. Ecutek would not be able to communicate with an aftermarket gauge.

OEM in one big circuit board. All 3 and soldered and connected to it.

If you want to keep your oem gauges, you can always get a Galeforce pillar gauge pod.

scope22 12-06-2015 09:55 AM

Yea i came across that yesterday browsing, i have a single pod but i think i'll pick up dual
