defi gauge users, please read

HS WRB-rex · 09-02-2002, 12:10 PM

are the gauges accurate, (I'm asking mainly since I've heard the boost gauge reads a bit high)?

are they worth the hype/money?

are the metric gauges easy to judge small increments on the 60mm gauges i.e. 1.1 bar vs 1.15 bar?

does the control unit fit flush in the false panel next to the cupholder? if not, do you know the exact dimensions?

any hardware that didnt come with them or needed to be replaced because they did not fit?

any other comments?

Umm....my defi boost doesn't read high, not according to what the MAP sensor is telling me through the link...

You've got to remember that the Defi boost gauge (at least the one I've got) uses kg/cm2 - which is almost 1 bar....but not quite.

I'm running 1.35 bar held, so it's quite high up as well, could be that the nutters running 1.5+ has issues with overreading?

yea, I think Al was having that problem, I guess accuracy will become a problem only if you run crazy boost levels, I'll never run past 20 psi or the equivalent so I dont think theres a need for worry
