Speedhut 2-1/16″ 750mmhg-0-2.0 Bar Boost/Vac Gauge (R2-BV5-REV)

Description

The Speedhut 2-1/16″ 750mmhg-0-2.0 Bar Boost/Vac Gauge (R2-BV5-REV) is a vital instrument for monitoring the performance of turbocharged or supercharged engines. This gauge provides accurate readings of both positive pressure (boost) and negative pressure (vacuum) within the engine’s intake manifold, allowing users to ensure optimal engine operation and identify potential issues. Featuring a precise 3-Wire Military Grade Transducer, this gauge offers reliable and consistent measurements across its entire range. The integrated warning light provides an added layer of security, alerting the driver to potentially harmful pressure levels. Designed with a standard 2-1/16 inch (52mm) diameter, this metric gauge is easy to install in most aftermarket gauge pods.

KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS:

• Accurate Measurement: Provides precise readings of boost pressure up to 2.0 Bar and vacuum down to 750 mmHg, essential for performance monitoring.
• High-Quality Sensor: Utilizes a 3-Wire Military Grade Transducer for consistent and reliable pressure readings.
• Integrated Warning Light: Features a built-in warning light to alert the driver of abnormal pressure levels, preventing potential engine damage.
• Standard Size: With a 2-1/16 inch (52mm) diameter, it fits seamlessly into most standard aftermarket gauge pods for easy integration into your vehicle’s interior.
• Complete Installation Kit: Ships with all necessary components for installation, including wiring harnesses and a hose kit.

HOW TO USE:

1. Mount the Gauge: Choose a suitable location in your vehicle and securely mount the 2-1/16″ gauge in a compatible gauge pod or mounting solution, ensuring the 2.062″ (52mm) hole size is appropriate.
2. Install the Pressure Sensor: Locate a suitable port on your engine’s intake manifold to install the provided 3-Wire Military Grade Pressure Sensor. Ensure the sensor is properly sealed.
3. Connect the Hoses: Attach the provided Boost/Vac Hose Kit between the installed pressure sensor and the back of the boost/vacuum gauge. Ensure all connections are secure and free of leaks.
4. Wire the Gauge: Connect the 3-Wire Pressure Gauge Wiring Harness between the pressure sensor and the back of the gauge.
5. Connect Power and Lighting: Use the 3 ft Power & Lighting Harness to connect the gauge to a suitable power source in your vehicle. This harness also typically controls the gauge’s backlighting.
6. Verify Connections: Double-check all hose and wiring connections to ensure they are secure and correct.
7. Start the Engine: Start your vehicle’s engine and observe the gauge readings to confirm proper operation. The gauge should display the current vacuum level at idle and indicate boost pressure when the turbocharger or supercharger engages under acceleration.
8. Monitor the Warning Light: Familiarize yourself with the warning light’s behavior as described in the product documentation. It will illuminate when pressure levels exceed a preset threshold.
