Just looking into buying an Eboost2 controller and some new gauges.

I've hit a wall deciding whether to get a boost gauge or not as Im not sure whether or not the Turbosmart Eboost2 controller has an actual boost gauge within its display. As I obviously dont want to have a separate auto meter boost gauge next to my eboost displaying the same info when i could have a voltmeter or another gauge etc. And I need to buy them at the same time as I am making a custom panel to mount them in my dash for a factory look.

So my question is, to anyone that knows or has an Eboost controller, does it have a boost gauge which stays on while your driving, working like a digital boost gauge? Or does it just tell you what the boost is set at?

I have tried ringing a few autobarn stores which sell them but nobody seems to know what they are on about, just giving me ummms and aaaahhhs.

This might help you a little if you already havn't checked it out, it gives you downloads of instructions which should give you some insight...

    • How have you run it in / what has been done in those 6 hours? Also, you need to do the test hot. You have to load the new motor pretty hard to bed the rings in quickly and properly, doing it on the dyno is best and only takes an hour-ish The other question is.....what were the measured clearances post machining and do they match the specs for the piston and rings
    • Sounds like a good outcome, must be nice to have it working well, and yes everyone seems to top out under 250rwkw with a low mount rb25 so you are in the right ballpark. It really would have been worth setting up the boost controller at the same time, but at least now you can share some back to back data on how much difference holding the gate closed until you need it makes
    • I've done this both ways, I'd use the original loom & swap plugs on the engine side as you'll usually end up changing a lot of those anyway. Series 1 is usually non ABS which requires wiring which I can't remember how to do as haven't done it for over 15 years. The auto inhibitor is easy to bypass or in the meantime you can put it in neutral & unbolt it & tape it somewhere in the bay haha, then just wire reverse lights. I'd go straight to aftermarket ecu. A few basics are built in ignitor coils & reverse the CAS wiring, sort the plugs for whatever injectors & IAC-you can use an adaptor for the neo type otherwise the s1 will still work, use the knock sensors that suit the loom & it'll be pretty much running.  
    • This is for an RB20DET. Sorry for not including that. 
    • Welp, this is where my compression lands after my rebuild. Thoughts? I have ~6 hours on the motor.
