41518, Autometer gauges question
Posted by Attrayant, Feb-25-03 01:54 AM
Hi, I was looking at getting some gauges for my coming hrc kit, and I was wondering, which is better, the boost gauge that displays vac too, or just boost? Also, is a Pyrometer gauge and EGT gauge the same thing just difernt term? Thanks.

i personally like the vac on my boost gauge because you will see if you have a vac leak, and the pryometer and egt are the same but make sure you get the one with the probe.

If you buy a new kit, it comes with a boost gauge but to me it's cheap. Any Autometer boost/vac gauge will do. The Ultra Lite's are a great deal. Also I think an EGT gauges is just that, the gauge. While the Pyrometer refers to the gauge and probe, which usually is apparant by the price difference. :D

thanks for the info, also I was looking at the autometer lunar series gauges, it says that it hooks up to the stock light intensity switch. I have a RS and have never seen a dash lighting intensity switch, they will still work, yes? Thanks.

Your RS doesn't have an interior light dim knob? :wary If not, then you just wont be able to dim your lights in the gauges, but you can still use them.
