new techy bits fitted

Post by quattronutter » Tue Jul 08, 2008 11:34 pm

just got round to fitting my plx digital gauge,excellent bit of kit,i carefully dismantled it and fitted it into the rear view mirror,i have it hooked up to read egt's,afr,boost and can also read timing,intake temps,maf...etc etc....you can read data in real time in gauge format,graph or several simultaneous perameters in simple numerical format,all the gauge styles can be configured into any colours...

afr,egt and boost are running independently of obd through different sensor modules so much quicker than odb,there is also peak and hold,so you can data log and set alarms. eg if egts go through the roof

Have you got any more info on this gauge - prices / links please?
Did you fit it into a auto dimming mirror or standard one?

Aidan, how'd you mount the SM-EGT sensor? Rather where did you mount it?
