Is the only option (from Auto Meter) the Phantom series gauges? What color do they light up at night?

I need a 0-100psi fuel pressure and a boost gauge that tops out at 20psi MAX. Hopefully more like 15psi.

I want white faced to match the stock dash.

I guess I go with these correct?

 

I think the Ultra-Lights match pretty well. I have the 0-100psi fuel and 15psi boost/vac. Check out my Avatar.

 

I second Blue - the silver edges add to the effect and the guage cluster is silver, not white! I just put the red cover on the bulbs and it looks mean!!

 

Those would look good. I have the carbor fiber boost gauge and I think it looks pretty good. I haven't bought a fuel pressure gauge yet. They're a bit pricey and I'm not sure I really want to up the boost more anyway. After unplugging the IMRC I haven't had any issues w/ pinging.

 

My Autometer electric fuel guage is still sitting in the box. Don't know how to installed it, Scalbert have some plumbing on his. I just didn't feel save to do what he did.

 

So they will light up at night, etc.

Mechanical or Electrical?

I know I need electrical for the fuel pressure.

 

I was thinking about doing up a braided system using all -AN fittings, want one.

 

You already know my suggestion, but i think the Ultra-Lights would indeed match up pretty well.




Almost all the gauges are back lit by a bulb which can be made red/green etc. by putting a supplied bulb "condom" over them.

 

Can you provide more detials? Part Numbers, recommended places to purchase, etc. Thanks!

 

Just a recommendation - don't run fuel into the cabin!!

Autometer Ultra-Lite #4376 for boost and Autometer Ultra-Lite #4363 for fuel pressure - they should be under $350 for both. These are the guages Blue and I use.

Buy them on-line... probably the best price - try Limit Engineering and ask for John.

 

Do you mean "No Limit Engineering"

 

no www.limitengineering.com

 

OHHH THAT's what those red and blue thingys were for!?

Duh... mine are all bright white right now. I am going to go put the blue one on there!

 

Have you checked out Defi Guages? I have 2 of them. Boost and EGT, both are 60mm.

The kit comes with the controller until that allow more guages to be plug in in the future if you so choose. I bought them for my S2K, but then changed my mind on installing them.

If you are interested, let me know.

It's red and green - if you want blue, you have to put both of them on!
Primary colors....

 

I run the Phantom gauges. Work good for me.

 

ebay motors has some really good prices on guages from autometer as well.

 

I favor the Lunar Series from Autometer. the Phantom series is also very nice. they are indiglow green.

^ The problem with the Lunar series is all I see is a 30psi boost gauge, nothing lower like 15 or 20

 

u buying the s/c brand new steve??

 

Not brand new, "slightly broken in". Deal of the century... more like steal of the century :thief:

 

did you look at the auto meter cobalt gauges. they look tight

 

Damn you have one too!!! I just when to my local machine shop to get a custom T-fitting fabricated. It will cost me $75 to make one. I haven't got it back but if it doesn't work, Yes I want that too. Will let you know soon. Thanks

 

I went with the Ultra-lights - 20lb boost and air/ fuel gauge. Both are monted on the stearing column.

 

you have a pic of them mounted?

 

Not as of yet, but when I meet up with Steve maybe he can help me with that and post them here.

 

I tried them and this is the reponse I got:

Any other suggestions?

 

You can get the gauges in question at Summit Racing or Jegs:

Here is all you need to make the change:

With those two parts you can use the hose provided by Comptech and have the 1/8 FNPT port for the sensor.

 

^^^ Steve are those the fittings I need to install the gauges?

 

Fuel pressure.

 

Thanks...
