foxdie Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 you can have a tube comming out the dash, and you can blow into it when you hooof it. Then just get one of those speaker/dump valves and your away and kicking... Infact i think they call that cosworth boost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boost guage on a NA engine, honestly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timmy C Posted August 1, 2005 Author Share Posted August 1, 2005 Im not wanting a boost gauge to make it look like i have a turbo lol. Basically i have two already and im having a third one just above my steering columbn so it will be in easy view with my revs and speedo so it needs to relate to driving and change with driving. I need to keep to the same brand of gauge so they all have matching styles. Only gauges i am left with as an option are oil pressure and boost gauge. It just didnt seem right to have oil pressure in such a prominent position! The boost gauge that is an option also measures vacume or negative boost. So if i hooked it up to my induction system would it actually move about at all? I actually have a morette mounted air inlet that feeds direcly through a force ram kit. It would be interesting to see if i ever break negative boost! But would the dial actually move?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted August 1, 2005 Share Posted August 1, 2005 Oil pressure is about the most important gauge you can have Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont care anyway. Does anyone know if a boost gauge will move if connected to a NA inlet?> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
