Not sure I can do that until I get the turbo installed :peelout :sly

It was easier just to tilt the cluster until the needle swung back to the lower part of the scale.

Na engines will do some good work, you just got to lean on them a lot more than a turbo

Resetting the speedo...

You may try holding down the speedo reset button then turn the key on.

This should sweep the speedo full scale and show you its calibration constant.

Yes, I saw that, thanks... I don't want digital gauges though.
Just wondering how exactly he mounted it ;)

You drive an almost 30 year old truck... adding digital gauge proves you are not just some hilly billy but a sophistimacated hilly billy. :rotflmao

And chicks dig it. :music: That's my theory anyway!

Wellll... I got my EE degree almost 40 years ago and analog gauges are much easier to interpret when the data is slowly wandering (like EGT and boost). Those constantly changing numbers would drive me nuts. DVM's are great for steady readings, but I'll take my old Triplett 630 for anything moving around...

Besides, my other half does not like riding in my truck (at least when empty) because it rides so hard! :sly

I couldn't agree more on the gauges, though I sure wish my analog gauges had the programable alarm like the Auber's do... that's really nice.
