Message I have to give George credit for these as he'd seen them at a trade show a few years back and mentioned that they'd be a viable solution for what I wanted.

These were back ordered for a month before I received them. They were currently upgrading to the new V2s that had integrated more features. I want to point out that they DID ship and deliver amlost exactly to the date promised via email.

A good value yes, innexpensive NO. These guys have really done their homework. They have 22 preset configurations available including intercooler temp in & Out. Although there are 7 preset color options, you can change the hue so this adds an infinite possibilty. Back-lighting, Contrast, bightness, balh blah.....

each readout/facing has the following: hi & Low warning via Color change (sustained or flash) based on user definable thresh holds. I'm just setting them up and what I have is not permenent.
Example:
Water temp stays gold/yellow till 160F then blue, then Flash/Red at 225F

The interior of the car has all blue lighting and the guages for weekend driving around are themed accordingly. Track day will be redefined using greens, golds, and reds where asthetics will take a back seat to function.

These are the switches that corespond to the different guages left to right. These switches can be programed themselves for custom use as well. Example: one touch to access latest peak measeurement or clear memory

Here's a pic of the fuel pressure SU, All the associated SUs were of extremely high quality and Georges coment was they were very straight forward on the install. Oil temp is located on a sandwich plate.

This was left intact and gave the SPA WT SU its own dedicated signal

You can toggle between all associated units of measurement within the relm of each guage including the resolution.




Gotta....Have....More.....Boost!!!!!!
