High Boost overlays ready to view/order

[Ray Hilton]

Thanks for being so patient everyone. The new 20+ High Boost overlays are ready to view and I'm taking orders. As I mentioned in another thread I'm waiting to get these back from the silkscreener. I should be able to ship in about a week. I will send them out in the order I recieve the orders.
I will be happy to answer any questions as well.
These should be installed on Cobras making 16 to 24 pounds of boost. There are no hash marks between the 8 and 18 numbers on the gauge. Because of that fact if you are not making these higher boost levels you should go with the original Boost Overlay. They can be viewed and ordered at www.boostoverlay.com I will be away from my computer for a good portion of this evening so if you post questions I will be happy to answer when I return and check this post. Thanks to everyone who has contributed with thier suggestions and comments.

Whats a 2.8 car make with a stock blower? I want a Whipple, but don't want my gauge to not work, it looks like it would be about in the middle of the gauge around 12 o clock? :thumbsup:

 

[DSG2003SVT]

A 2.8 upper should make around 15psi. Give or take depending on weather and stuff.

Your kidding about the 20+.....right

Did you use a magic marker to draw the line across the 0
It Looks awful.

Thanks for correcting my error and posting this thread as a sticky Jeff. I appreciate your help very much.

To answer a couple of questions.
Strokd: If you are making between 10 and 16#s I stongly recommend the original boost overlay as it has hash marks between the 10 and 16# numbers. The new high boost overlay is really for Cobras making in excess of 16#s and up to 24#s.

03yellow: With the aftermarket blowers in use on these cars boost readings of 20+ are pretty common. I produced this new high boost overlay because I had quite a positive response when I took a poll of the regulars on this board. I'm trying to fill that need. As for the magic marker comment. The pic is actually a preproduction overlay installed on my own 03. The finished product is at the silkscreener and won't be available for about a week. I don't see a problem when the overlay is veiwed from the normal driving position. I doubt anyone else will either.
Thanks, Ray H.

Ray, do you make a speedo overlay?

 

[Ray Hilton]

I really don't have any plans to do a speedo overlay but that could always change if there is enough demand for it.

Cool idea. I may have to get this now that I've got the KB which sould be around 19psi

 

[03yellow]

Yea I know, Im running over 16lbs on cold days. (I have one of your old overlays)
I thought you were kidding bacause of the quality of the numbers...ie..the way they look on the new overlay.
You did a great job on the old overlay!

The new one dosent look so good.... I had to look twice till I figured the numbering out on the 8 and the 18. I looked down and saw the needle resting on the 0 then I understood what the numbers were supposed to be.

Yeah give or take is right. I've got a 2.76" BF and I calibrated it per the directions. It was dead on I usually see 13.5 sometimes it'll spike up to 14 then (DUE THE FACT OF THE EATON) it'll drop down after about 4.5K-5K RPM. But yeah I've heard of guys making 15 on really nice cool days. And Rays Boost overlay looks very natural in there. If you take your time and line it up nice it'll look like it was there from the day it rolled off the factory. My friend drove my Cobra to pick me up from the airport when I got back from the desert. He wasn't sure but swore something was different to me that just says it looks natural.

I almost always make 13psi with my 2.93" even when it's warm outside. :shrug: Depends on the car too I guess.

Actually Ray,

I ordered one this morning, but after looking at the pic again the 8 doesn't look that great. Is it just the pre prod piece or is that what the final one will look like?

I would be willing to wait for a better looking 8 if possible??

thanks again!

 

[SickBlackMach]

I dont know if this has been asked... but, is there any way that you can make an overlay that has each hash mark/ per psi?

 

[2003 Silver]

If the other overlay was good to 16 and this one really starts at 18...what about us 17 psi whipple guys??
