Interesting, did you run the wired version? How responsive was it? I used torque app with a Bluetooth obd reader to see what boost settings are in each drive mode but it's just not responsive enough for dedicated gauge use.

I ran the wired one in the Speed3. When I sold the car a few years back I sold the UltraGauge to a buddy with an Abarth 500 who's still using it to this day. It was very responsive and I never had a problem with it. It can display RPM, MPH, Engine Load, HP, Torque, Coolant Temperature, Intake pressure, Intake Air Temperature and more!

@StingerGTT
By any chance could you post up more pics of your install... Also where did you wire your gauge to?

No problem jay what would u like to see ? The ground was a pain in the ass to find a good one so I used a stud with a nut coming threw the fire wall and I tapped off the the 20amp power outlet fuse in the right side of the fuse panel for 12v

-Where you ran the boost tube through your engine bay.
Also how long is the tube you used that ran from the boost gauge? Did you use a T adapter?
- How you tapped into the fuses. Fuse adapter?
First Boosted car so I'm new to all of this

The boost tube was the WORST I had to run it there the rubber grommet that the wires run to the ecu, I did use a fuse adapter and a O shaped terminal for the ground and the stud, and I think it was 3 or 4ft of line for the hose can’t remeber and yup I used a T adapter to tap to the boost line which I believe I posted the right line to tap off of.

Thanks for all the info. Getting hooked up with a boost gauge so I will be installing one sometime this week.
The boost line is the one topped off with a rubber hose and zip tie correct?
