Default Electronic Boost gauge

Gday,

Im after an electronic boost gauge for my gc8. Im not keen on getting a cheap one and i dont particularly want to spend 150+ on a gauge..

I had an sti computer put in yesterday and a 3in tbe, Im not happy with the increase in power so im going to be winding the boost up....

Stechnic wont do that until i get a gauge and a new fuel pump (ill be getting the walbro replacement).

THis will be on stock turbo...if the turbo shits itself then i will replace with vf34.

Thanks

Just put the VF34 on. Upping the boost on the TD04 with those mods won't get you much of a gain, compared to putting the VF34 on imo.

that was the next step i guess...

Was just hoping that a few more horses from upping the boost and getting the most out of this turbo would keep me happy for a while.

Regardless the Gauge and fuel pump are still necessary upgrades.

You need to change the restrictor pill to the smaller STI one or the boost won't go to STI 17ish PSI levels.
