Muhsin... You have forgotten about it for nearly two years!! :lol:

Gents,
Looks like I'll have to build some more, perhaps a Christmas project.

I think I have one more left that's already assembled - after that I need to
order new PCBs.

I'll find some place to host the PDF instruction manual for those considering...
If there is sufficient interest, I'll see if I can get a subcontractor to assemble the boards for me (It's very time consuming which is why I don't openly advertise / promote any of my projects)

Cheers,
Paul.

PS, Folks, remmber these are suitable for REV3 turbos only, or those using an aftermarket ECU and a GM 3Bar MAP sensor. I've not made a Rev1/2 MAP sensor version, as they oly read to around 16psi, and some on the USA boards question their accuracy as a sensor anyway.

PPS, Hello from Mexico City :mrgreen: It's as cold as the UK here at the mo... 8'c in the day, -4 at night! The BBC has it all wrong, glad I brought jumpers!

Why do they only read to 16PSi paul?

i will definatly take one, my car is a rev3, it looks like i'll have to keep my A Pillar pod too then as i run over 16PSi but i'm not fussed!

How much money is going to be in them?

P.S. i know your away on holiday, i'm just posting for when you get back

Cheers :)

the rev1/2 MAP sensor only reads to 16PSI and Paul has a rev3 which reads up to 20psi I think.

The boost reading limit is imposed by the cars MAP sensor...

A Rev1/2 MAP sensor only reads to 16psi, which is why I have not made a variant of the gauge for these cars.

A Rev3 will read to 25.5 PSI on the gauge

Not over here on Holiday.... All work and Tequila ;)
