Boost gauge the 2.0t??

[SaLLyBaLLzZz]

Did anyone install a boost gauge on their turbo?? And is it hard to install?

[slowturbo]

its not hard all you have to do it tap into a vaccum line, run the lines and mount your gauge somewhere. i tapped into the factory recurculation valve vaccum lines and ran the lines through the firewall and mounted it next to my dash, but ill move it once a pillar pod comes out

I wonder how accurate a DashHawk or DashDaq would be. Anyone try an OBD2 reader

I've got a ScanGuage II that I used to run in my Kia Optima. In theory it should be able to pull any numbers the ECU has, but you have to program it with the right codes. I would love to use it to show boost pressure and coolant temp.

I have the Torque app for Android phones. It shows boost pressure, and much more info. Pulls it all from the ECU with a Bluetooth device hooked up to the OBDII port

What's the boost level, according to your phone?

Will a pillar gauge group even be available since there are curtain airbags? I used the Auto Meter Ultra-Light Boost gauge in my SC Harley F150 on the pillar.

Hook up can be anywhere in the intake system.

Measures 0-60, 1/4 miles times too. Only been using it a few days now so haven't gone WOT yet, but giving the throttle a quick jab I've seen 15psi so far. Read the max is around 17ish. I work tonight off a long straight road, empty road. I get off work around 11pm. Was gonna try out the 1/4 mile functon then and record the run to see the max boost and so forth.

It'd be interesting to see how accurate the ECU is reporting boost as opposed to a traditional boost guage tapped into a vacuum source. I have a bluetooth OBD2 reader on the way and Torque installed already. Still waiting for a viable mounting option, whether it's a pillar pod, or even something like a vent pod.
