LED Boost Gauge

Install Your Own Custom In-Dash 20 Indicator 20, 25 or 30 PSI, Boost Gauge
and Air Fuel Meter Combination - All in one Compact Unit

In Dash Boost Gauge & Air Fuel Meter Comb Kit (Any Vehicle, Requires 1v O2 Sensor)

The kit includes everything you need in order to build your own accurate (+/-  0.250 PSI) fully functional turbo boost gauge. It takes the signal from a supplied Computer Grade pressure sensor and monitors the boost pressure "Real Time".  Results are reported on 20 LED indicators with an accuracy of approximately +/- 0.250 of a PSI when installed and setup correctly. As you can see from the example photograph below, 1 indicator corresponds to exactly 1 PSI. 1 to 20 respectively.

Indicator colors can be customized in any combination of Red, Green, Yellow, Amber & Blue.

Optional 25 or 30 PSI Boost Gauge Kit (Utilizes an External High Pressure Boost Sensor)

Other customized boost readings are also available up to a maximum of 30 PSI, but they do require an external Sensor that we supply.  A computer grade external pressure sensor is included. Each indicator is calibrated to 1.250 PSI for the 25 PSI unit and 1.5 PSI for the 30 PSI Unit.

Sample 25 PSI, in 180 & 206 Degree Designs

The unit also includes custom "Dimmer" technology that automatically dims the indicators for night time driving to an adjustable pre-set level,  when you turn on your car's master light switch. The night time brightness can be adjusted to suite individual requirements.

An accurate "Real Time" boost gauge is an absolute must, especially if you have done any non stock performance upgrades to your car. Such as; installing a new chipped ECU, increasing turbo boost settings, adding boost controllers etc.  Calibration is easy to do and default components are provided for sea level operation. The circuit is flexible enough to be configured for any altitude if needed. You can mount the Indicators anywhere you like. But we recommend putting them in the existing tachometer dial in your car's instrument cluster.  This is not too difficult to do and is discussed in detail in a dedicated article on this web site under VW Golf.  Yes, they can be fitted right into the car's dash board. The control unit is so small it can easily be concealed behind the dash.

The Gauge is available in 2 configurations as follows, just click on the title(s) to order:

• Digital Boost (20 - 30 Psi) & AFM Kit, Ready Built Control Units & Loose LEDs ($320 - Quantity Discounts & Group Buys Available)
  This kit includes a completed, calibrated and tested Digital Boost & Air Fuel Meter Control Units (DBCU & AFMCU) with "Dimmer" technology, and 30 Loose indicators in the colors of your choice Red, Green, Yellow, Amber & Blue. (Blue Indicators are $4 extra & Amber are $2.00 extra each) It also comes with installation and operational instructions. You will need some good soldering and general DIY skills in order to complete this project. You will also require some general tools including a drill, fine tipped low Wattage soldering iron, solder, about 25 feet of 28 SWG LED hookup wire,  and miscellaneous pieces of wire. All you have to do to complete the project is install the Indicators in your dash or any other desired location, wire them up to the PCB, connect the power, dimmer wire to the light switch and Tee the external sensor to your car's existing vacuum line using a 1/8 NPT connector and vacuum pipe, and you are ready to go.

• The kit includes: 1 calibrated Boost Control Unit (DBCU), 1 AFM Control Unit (AFMCU), 1 Computer Grade Pressure Sensor (20 - 30 psi), 30 loose 1.8mm indicators in the color combination of your choice comprising of Red, Green, Yellow, Amber & Blue (Blue and Amber are at an extra cost) The default selection is; 8 Red, 14 Green, & 8 Yellow indicators and installation and operation instructions.

  This kit includes a completed and tested Digital Boost Gauge & Air Fuel Meter Combination Control Unit (DBGAFMCU) PCB with "Dimmer" technology, installed in your car's stock instrument cluster.  You just ship us your stock cluster, and we install the complete gauge for you. Indicators are available in the colors of your choice Red, Green, Yellow & Blue. (1.8mm Blue Indicators are $5 extra each) The attractive and subtle 1.8m indicators are exquisite, and look as if they were installed at the factory. All you have to do is re-install your cluster, connect up the power, dimmer control wire and pressure sensor signal (or tee optional high pressure sensor into you car's vacuum line at a suitable point) and you are done. You also get a fully assembled and tested Digital Boost Gauge Control Unit (DBGCU), mounted in a convenient compact black enclosure approximately 3.1" x 1.5" x .7". (For Boost Controller PCB Only) All you have to do to complete the project is install the completed cluster back in your dash, connect the power, AFM Signal wire to the car's OEM 1v O2 sensor signal, dimmer wire to the light switch and the Boost signal wire to the car's stock Pressure Sensor output or the optional External High Pressure Sensor, and you are ready to go. You will not need to do any soldering to install this unit. Shipping charges depend on your level of urgency, and are charged at actual cost.  We like to say that we require a week to complete the installation. Most are complete and ready for return shipment within 4 days, weekends included.
  
  If you are local to Southern California, and can drop the cluster off, after we have completed the cluster, we can also perform the complete installation for an extra cost.
