My new Guages in 91 Prado

[dberwin]

Just had to put something cool and liked these. The only problem is they flash on low temp but you could use the dial guages if you like with a high temp limit. They are from prosport and the service and pricing is excellent.

Prosport Gauges

I got one extra sending unit ($9) and have put one in the Transmission and one in the rad hose. The rad hose addaptor was from the same company. The switch above the guages is to switch from one to the other of the sending units. The EGT went into the old EGR port in the exhaust.

The guages are Oil and Water temp, Boost, and EGT

I just noticed your Boost is 22lbs and exhaust is 148 x 10f = 1480 that is pretty HOT isnt it?

that cant be right... you should have melted the block by then... 600 is close to melting pistons

Hey dberwin, nice gauge set up. I have a cheap digital temp gauge but it sucks. Do your gauges change with the turn on of head lights, heater fan, ect?? I have checked my engine temps with a heat temp gun and the gauge is always out.
I am emailing Prosport and asking questions but I wanted to know first-hand.

Thanks.

Too High temps

The gauges are just cycling through when I turned it on. It was sitting in my shop so just turned the key on and took the picture. The Boost runs 9 psi, EGT as high as 1200 and the coolant at 150. Those are in F deg not C deg. so taking some time to get used to them.

No changes with other electrical things that I noticed.

I would get the Blue Dial ones if I had the choice now so take a look at them.
