just wondering i have just ordered a trust dual piller guage holder and i intend to use autometer guages are saying that they wont fit?

cause the jap size is 60mm

and the autometer size is 2.25" which is the same???

they dont mate up 100%, u will have to trim the gauge holder a bit.

yes, ask meggala, 1 of those boost gauges was the cause of his blown engine

I believe you and your opinion on these forums means a lot i think and you know your stuff but are you basing your writing off an entire range on just one instance or is there more proof that they are crap.

I just want to know as i though that splitfire and autometer were in the same league and i havn't heard anything wrong with autometer.

i got my one form rampage in newcastle cost me $180 the spiltfire gauges u just haw to cut the top out very finely just a little bit at a time ever slowly till u get a it to fit to mch and it looks shit house u c the back ov the gauge

so yes u can fit the big spiltfire gauges in to the piler mounts and looks good

    • So for the wide band is a Bosch 4.9 correct for the Link G4+ along with a Can bus? Just get the Link gear or is generic ok too? Eg here: LINK LINK DIGITAL WIDEBAND CAN MODULE WITH BOSCH 4.9 SENSOR : KYP Performance House  
    • Bit difficult to follow. Have a look below and see what the standard R32 layout was like. Note there was a restrictor in place immediately before "turbocharged pressure control solenoid" that, if removed, magically got you 1 bar boost.
    • I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators. 
    • Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?
