just make sure i have my vaccum block connected right. I connected it to the line that is on the throttle body.

i dont think its a problem of your vacuum source, its more on you wiring power to your gauge or prolly its defective

ValenciaS

Im pretty sure its the wiring. Im going to sell the whole unit , im in for some new gauges anyways. You want first dibs lol , DEFI controller , boost gauage , ext temp gauge, and oil gauge.

ValenciaS

I actually went to autozone and bought a very cheap mechanical boost gauge 24 bucks, that should do until my new gauges get ordered . I will be doing the install on sunday. Im scared to death of not running the car with a boost gauge. I have a greddy ultimate and its tuned at 7.5 psi from the previous owner but who knows, im not going to risk it

aen

travis, you need to take a picture of the ac control and the potentiometer and stuff

rhythmnsmoke

Just some exterior pics? Or you talking taking the dash apart?

V....before you sale those gauges, see if you can get a pic of that connector for me.

aen

taking it apart im curious how they did the ac controls

rhythmnsmoke

^^Kenny said they had to bring in a friend to solder the board around. Don't remember everything exactly, as it's a good 2+ years old mod I had done.

aen

i knowwwww that's why i want to know so badly, i've been asking you for a year and a half ahhaha

ValenciaS

np travis i will have them up tomorrow afternoon been busy sry about that. You want a pic of the controller connectors ?

ValenciaS

Just had a question , would the 52mm prosport gauges fit in the center triple gauge pod ?

rhythmnsmoke

Yeah, the connector coming out of the boost gauge that plugs into the controller. Little white connector. If you can get the color of the wires and what order they attach into the connector, that would be great.

rhythmnsmoke

LOL...perhaps I can see what I can do for you.

aen

lol thanks man, i've been wondering how you did yours

ValenciaS

NP i will have that pic up when I get home from work.
Also as i stated before, i bought one of those mechanical boost gauges at autozone. Are these good enough to tell boost pressure(just needed a boost gauge until my new ones ship)

rhythmnsmoke

Why not just stay out of boost until then. You can hear a turbo spooling.

ValenciaS

rhythmn where is the best place to connect a boost gauge ? also i have the pic for the connectors I have to upload.

rhythmnsmoke

Sweet, thanks for the pic. As for tapping the boost gauge, there is really no one particular place better than another. Just make sure your vac source has no leaks and your good to go. Vac lines coming off the throttle body are a great source.

ValenciaS

Thanks. All i have to to say is OMG , i just installed my turbo kit yesterday. Car pulls like a beast . Also i bought a cheap $24 boost gauge at autozone. And its connect to my vaccum block on the throttle body. It dosnt seem to be working.
