any one using pillar boost gauges?

[dsmman]

I can't find them for sale any where. Any one running them? If so where did you get them and what is an approximate cost? Pics are always helpful

thanks in advance,

A lot of guys are using the TRD tundra boost gauge because it only goes up to 10psi and it looks real nice. It also comes with everything to mount to the A-Pillar.

I bought an autometer gauge pod, painted it my interior color, and also got the boost and a/f gauge.

This is a bad pic, but its the only one I could find. I'll try to take more

The pic doesn't show up. Is it just my computer?

I see the picture just fine. I also used the Autometer dual gauge pod. You can see a pic on my Car Domain page. Imolded the pod into the A-Pillar. -JoeB

I used the autometer pod too, with Greddy 60mm gauges i have to bore the hole bigger

What kind of paint and its color do you guys use to match the interior of the car? I also have the the tan/khaki colored interior.

i wouldn't go for oil pressure, no one i know has hooked it up on their car.
i've seen it ready, but the person never got around to connecting it.

pyrometer and volt would be nice, although volt is kinda useless. might want to try water temp.

a/f is useless as well. unless you buy something other than autometer.

Does the tundra setup (bracket and gauge) come in tan or are all the set up's black and every one simply paints them? As far as I can tell I only need the boost gauge so may go the tundra route. What is the cost for the autometer gauge? No prices are listed on their page

I picked a spray paint from autozone that has closet color to my interior. I took out the tweeter cover with me to the store so i can compare the color. my color is a bit off as you can see, but close enough

I'm out of town right now so I can't get you the number but I took an interior part into a VERY good paint shop in Frederick, MD called McHenry's. If you call information and get the number they can help you. They supply paint mixed to all the body shops in the area. They mixed the tan color for the interior and have it listed for the Solara application. -JoeB

VOLT GUAGE= shows is alternator is dying, or battry
Oil Press= when you start drying tells you if your over reving your car an damaging your engine.

i would still like to know what the pyrometer does, and the air/fuel. what about boost? not neccesary unless supercharger is applied to the formula.

oil pressure is tough to hook up. i have no idea how one is to connect it.

pryometer- aka EGT- probes the tempreture of your exhaust gasses. it tells if the car is running lean or rich.

a/f is pretty much straight forward- tell how rich or lean you are running on the computer's signal side. useless from autometer. buy apex or something higher up along the line.
