More guages installed...

[ah64id]

Over the last few weeks I went from 2 gauges, boost and EGT, to 6... I also made my dual a-pillar a single a-pillar.. The visibility is much better now.

I added Rail Pressure (for fun, I don't mess with pressure), fuel pressure, oil pressure, and drive pressure (mainly for exhaust brake pressure). I also moved my pryo probe to the collector and put the drive pressure in the old pyro hole..

I have played with the drive pressure a little, but nothing too much.. I will be curious how it runs when towing.. It gets to about 40 and holds with the WG on... over 55 with the WG off and stock fueling.

The Fuel Pressure sender. I "T"ed into the line after the Cat 2 mic and before the CP3.



The new pyro location and DP hookup.



6' of copper tubing to dissipate the DP heat.



Inline filter to keep any soot (in case of an air leak) from getting to the gauge.



Where I tapped into the oil.. On the drivers side above the ECM.



Rail, Fuel, Oil



EGT



Drive, Boost

Haha.... yeah I think its a must have... really pisses me off they gave us and idiot gauge.

I have seen 58psi with the exhaust brake.. maybe I should have gotten the 0-100???

just curious as to why you didnt put the oil sending unit
on top of the oil filter housing .. ?

that oil pressure gage is electric right ?

i really like the overhead pods. looks killer.
did you have to get extensions to run those
way up there ?

There's room for about 7 more gauges ...I'd prolly do single steering column, though.

Yes, elec. Because with the gauge on the OH the sender wire is too short to reach over there.. so instead of splicing the wire I just used the port on the drivers side... I also think I may get a more accurate reading on where its at because my bypass is also using that 1/8" NPT port on the housing. I didn't have to extend anything, thou I am not sure the RP would fit all the way right

Yeah, if you do everything you can have up to 9, 12 on a 03-05...

I don't mind the double column.. I can still see the ODO and the cruise light, so its no biggie.

ah get a dual steering collom pod you can always find another gauge to put there.

cool - i figured you would have length issues
with at least one of the gages. the harnesses
arent as long they should be imo.

They at least should offer a sender extension like ISSPRO does.

But I am happy with this install, it was more work but its in.

Does that 0-100 gauge over the mirror say fuel pressure? I assume that it is the oil pressure gauge...

Yes it does, and yes its oil. Pricol does not have an optix oil pressure gauge.. they plan to change that gauges face plate to say oil, but still haven't.
