My tt swap thread with PICS - Page 5 - 3000GT/Stealth International Message Center

I wired my prosport gauges today, and when i put the key in to the acc position, the water temp and oil pressure gauge do a full sweep, but the boost gauge only goes to -10psi then goes back down. Arent they all supposed to do a full sweep.

Pretty sure my EGT and Boost doth do a full sweep, but they are not in sync. My EGT is a peak hold, and boost is not.

My Prosport boost gauge is mechanical and it doesn't do the startup sweep.

Beautiful swap bro. Can't wait til you get that thing on the dyno. Hope you ironout all the little stuff.

Well i did everything i needed to do to get the car drivable. I drove the car. The boost gauge doesnt work at all. When i start the car the needle now starts it sweep at 5 psi, goes all the way over and stops back at 5psi again. That was one issue.

The car also died on me everytime i got on it and let off. Im assuming boost leak or because i have an open atmosphere bov, or because my 02 sensor is not in the exhaust at all right now because my dp didnt fit and i have to modify it.

sounds like all those leaks are causing that. I would get an intake pressure tester, or make one. They are pretty handy at finding and fixing leaks.

those gauges look great I think I might have to go that route myself

that would be the resistor for the cooling fan, my try cleaning the trans fluid off of it with brake cleaner, you didn't change the wiring to the fans did you?
