Showing about 120,000 on the odometer.................... Those are autometer "Z" series......Boost EGT and Voltmeter from left to right. If I had dome more than just think about it last year I could have bought VDO guages before they got bought out and dissappeared.

ooOOOOo you put a pyrometer in?
Where did you put your probe? I just did mine and took pictures and am planning on making a DIY page on installing pyrometer, block heater, and boost gauge (did all three at the same time). Pre-turbo or post? Thanks! |

I did mine post turbo.....I didn't want to buy another set of gaskets to pull the turbo to drill and tap the manifold. I just put new gaskets on it just a couple months ago. its midway on the thick part of the pipe near the headpipe mount.

We could very easily give the forum members information comparing pre and post turbo results. Our engines are similar enough that some "nearby" equations could be formed.
Let me know when you get your goods installed. The boost controller is a nice thing I have...mine seemed to like it a bit..ALDA adjust and you are in buisness. ![]() |
