Hello,
Now that I once again have a working turbo in my car, I am determined
to have a working turbo gauge. The gauge itself in the dash works, but
it was receiving no signal from the sending unit.
To that end, I replaced the vacuum line between the intake manifold
and the boost gauge sending unit. Gauge still didn't work.
On eBay last week, someone was selling a NOS boost gauge sending unit
-- but for an '88-up 505 Turbo. I figured...worth a try.
I put it in today, and the gauge now responds to boost. However, it
will only go between the first white line and the second white
Online...not even a quarter of the way up the scale on the gauge.
(At this point, I'll mention that I have connected a calibrated
auxiliary turbo gauge to make sure that the wastegate was working
properly and that I wasn't overboosting. However, I want to have a
stock look to the dash, and just want to make sure the factory gauge
is in the right neighborhood).
I noticed on the boost gauge sending unit that there is a screw on the
front, right by the connection for the vacuum line. Is this for
calibration? If so, will I be able to calibrate this to work correctly
with my car, or is there a big enough difference in the boost gauge
senders for the N9TE vs. N9TEA that it just won't work?
Thanks,
Adam
