Exhaust Backpressure Gauge


Recommended Posts

I like having my exhaust backpressure gauge, but right now its just a loose gauge by my gear shifter.  My cheap-o glowshift pyrometer gauge crapped out (I still have the Edge pyrometer which is the one I monitor) so I'm thinking of replacing the pyrometer gauge in my A-pillar pod with an exhaust back pressure gauge to clean things up and make it easier to see.  From what I can tell, the only difference between a mechanical air pressure, boost, or exhaust pressure gauge from Autometer ore Isspro is the letters on the face of the gauge and the exhaust back pressure gauge comes with a length of copper tubing (which I don't need because I have a stainless part that came with my exhaust brake).

 

Does anybody have any input on this?  I'd like to do a bunch of things in one go to save time (and the new cd player I am getting has a bluetooth mike that I will have to run down the A-Pillar).  I might also try to do my headliner if I can find the material and what glue to use.

 

Thanks!

I'll take a picture of my A pillar on my lunch. The truck had a 2 "pod" A pillar setup when I bought it but none of the gauges worked. I had this suction cup/magnetic phone holder (scosche brand), 2 open slots, a Roto-Zip if anyone has seen one of those before they are awesome for cutting holes in plastic stuff such as an A pillar. I had a stereo with a mic but never mounted the mic. I borrowed the fiance's wood burning kit and used it to melt the phone holder to my A pillar and stuck the magnetic plate it came with to the back of my Edge. Used the rotozip to cut a hole for the mic and edge cables. I think it turned out sweet. I still need to sand it down and paint it to match but I like it. Only thing I might do would be consider putting the mount in the upper of thr 2 holes.
