Looks cool how does bright sunlight affect it?

VetteNoob

You can get them from http://www.DynoTune.org. I havent driven the car since installing it so I'm not sure how sunlight would affect visibility yet. I'll let you know in a few hours.

I bought from them too and but got the rectangular display that I'll mount on the dash bezel. Fuel rail fittings are on order and should be in tuesday :cheers:

Noobster, that is too sweet! :cheers:

Damn, stuff like this always ends up costing me money :leaving:

VetteNoob

You REALLY need to get the 2 1/16" gauge pod bezel. The thing is billet aluminum and the quality is amazing. When you install yours, make sure to not run the wiring harness ANYWHERE next to your spark plug wires. The harness picks up the electrical pulses and makes the display reading unreliable.

I routed mine under the plenum, then under the driver side injector harness, around the rear of the valve cover and connected the plug at the brake booster.


Tim, Im just trying to help you spend some money is all :yesnod:

Does it dim when the headlights are on?

Ording one right now! Been wanting one of these items for the longest time!

Can you do me a favor and see how accurate it is again a conventional gage?

32.5 psi seems extremely low, or is that a bad reading, ie car off?

Looks great though!

I have my Valantine 1 remote display mounted the same way so it's easy to see. I wonder if wrapping the wire with foil or some other type of shielding would cut down on the interference? I'm going to look at the supplied cable to see if it is shielded. It not a trip to radio shack should solve that problem.

VetteNoob

Scorp, the way it is wired up right now, it doesnt. Im not sure what would happen if I wired the 12v power source to a dimmer source. I suppose I can try and just seel what happens

VetteNoob

It's reading about what my old conventional gauge read but to the ".x" psi. 32.5 is with the vaccum connected and the car in idleing park. Is that too low? It is about 42ish with the vaccum disconnected.

VetteNoob

The cable is definitely NOT shielded. You may be able to correct the problem if you insulated the wires.
