Already one step ahead of you....
Thanks gents plenty more to come really soon...
Well gents what do you think? Be honest, couldn't really do it any other way but auto meter gauges. The last time I tried to use autometer I had a bad gauge and it back feed through the ignition box and burnt up a $4000 computer so we went with the racepak iq3 and sportsman logger, which has a built in 2 axis gmeter, drive shaft speed sensor, wheel speed sensor, reports fuel, oil pressure, water temp, boost, voltage, trans temp all to the dash.
The box on the left is my boost controller and bump box for staging the car with full boost.
The car is nearly complete should be running by wednesday.... getting pretty exited.

I think it looks fine and functional.
Not much you could do different with the stock design dash.
Glad to hear about the progress.
Bring it up for the NMRA Norwalk race

We were definitely going for functionality this time round. I just couldn't risk burning up another computer. Plus it would take about 8 guages to display what I have in this one. Plus the sportsman logger is awesome it will be an awesome tool for getting this thing down the track.
jealousy....yup...definitely.
Maybe next weekend....just depends on how fast we can get it tuned, we will be taking it to Petty down at Proline Racing.

I love the surging idle. Sometimes I do that manually at stop lights with my gas pedal.
It won't be like that for long, he had just made an adjustment to the fueling table while I was recording.
I am dying for dyno #'s on this thing. Really happy to see this one about wrapped up.
Great to hear finally. Stay with it almost there man!
