Speedhut 2-1/16″ 0-2.0 Bar Boost Gauge w/ Warning (R2-B7-REV)

Description

The Speedhut 2-1/16″ 0-2.0 Bar Boost Gauge w/ Warning (R2-B7-REV) provides accurate and real-time monitoring of your engine’s intake manifold pressure. This essential instrument allows you to track both positive pressure (boost) during forced induction operation and negative pressure (vacuum) when the engine is not under boost. Equipped with a high-performance 3-wire military-grade transducer, this gauge delivers reliable readings. The integrated warning light offers a crucial safety feature, alerting you to potential over-boost conditions, which can help prevent engine damage. With its metric display (0-2 bar range) and standard 52mm (2 1/16 inch) size, this gauge is a practical addition to any performance vehicle.

KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS:

• Accurate Monitoring: Provides precise readings of both boost and vacuum pressure, giving you a comprehensive understanding of your engine’s performance.
• Performance Transducer: Utilizes a 3-wire military-grade transducer, ensuring reliable and rapid pressure readings.
• Over-Boost Protection: Features a programmable warning light that illuminates when a user-defined boost pressure threshold is exceeded, helping to prevent potential engine damage.
• Standard Size: The 2-1/16″ (52mm) size ensures compatibility with a wide range of aftermarket gauge pods and mounting solutions.
• Metric Display: Presents pressure readings in Bar, a common and easily understandable unit for boost measurement.
• Complete Kit: Ships with all necessary wiring and the pressure sensor for a straightforward installation.

HOW TO USE:

1. Mount the Gauge: Choose a suitable location in your vehicle and drill a 2.062″ (52mm) hole. Secure the gauge in the opening.
2. Install the Pressure Sensor: Locate a suitable pressure source on your engine’s intake manifold. Install the provided 30 PSI pressure sensor at this location.
3. Connect the Wiring Harness (Pressure Sensor): Connect the 3-wire cable from the pressure gauge to the corresponding terminals on the pressure sensor.
4. Connect the Power and Lighting Harness: Connect the 3 ft power and lighting harness to the gauge. Typically, this will involve connecting a power wire (often to an ignition source), a ground wire, and potentially a wire for illumination (to your vehicle’s lighting system).
5. Program the Warning Light (if applicable): Follow the manufacturer’s instructions to set the desired boost pressure threshold for the warning light. This usually involves a button or configuration process on the gauge itself.
6. Verify Operation: Once all connections are made, start your vehicle and observe the gauge readings to ensure proper operation. Check that the warning light functions as expected when the set boost pressure is exceeded.

BENEFITS OF USING THE SPEEDHUT 2-1/16″ 0-2.0 BAR BOOST GAUGE W/ WARNING (R2-B7-REV):
