yeah, I'm thinking the white/green gauges will be fine, the blue ones I could see an issue with (and it's been confirmed...)
I might sell my soul for Prosport Peak and Hold gauges

Is that pic with your dash gauges turned up to full brightness? I want to find out what wavelength of green they are using!
Yep. I plan on changing the bulbs in the dash to brighter ones to match it closer.Doward said:

I couldn't resist, I ordered up Red/White EGT, Boost, and Oil Pressure yesterday.
From what I understand, the warning levels can flash alternating colors. Will it do this independant on what color you have the gauges lighting up as?

I haven't messed with this yet. I didn't know they could do that. All i've done is disable the power-on sound, and toy with view/clear peak, and set the warning psi on my boost gauge.annoyingrob said:

has anyone already hooked up their prosport oil pressure gauge? i'm just wondering what kind of readings your getting. either this gauge reads weird, or i have a problem. i'm seeing 5psi oil pressure at a idle when the car is fully warmed up. this possible?
I thought that was normal. What was your readings before with the stock gauge. I think normal idle is 3-5 psitheKnifeArtist said:

Sorry it isn't better, I went out to warm up my car for work and decided to snap that while I was out there. Time for work!

not bad at all, look at his gauge cluster...
5psi is normal if you're running thin oil, it's getting hot out, so I switch to much thicker oil and it's 10psi for ever 1k RPM now...

Thanks for the pic. But im assuming your car has tinted glass or does it? Im looking for a pic with windows down on a sunny day. Preferably with the targa out as well as that will be my application. Any help from anyone will be greatly appreciated.DaemoN said:Here's a daylight picture for those that have been waiting:

ok now that we have determined that everything is normal. Im still wondering why you think this is a problem? What was your readings before the guage?theKnifeArtist said:
Like I said, if you haven't shimmed your oil pump when you did the BHG repair, then 5 psi warm idle is just right...
SS that question is directed towards knife. Im wondering why he thinks normal idle pressure is a problem. And what his readings were before the prosport guage. Either his stock gauge is wrong or his prosport is wrong. Im trying to determine that too. If members are having problems getting good readings then that would give me reason NOT to get these.

5psi is within spec. RTFM.
What I don't get is why in many threads, people have freaked out as soon as their idle pressure reads 10psi and the needle starts thinking about dropping below 10 psi. Were they just being paranoid and not reading the manual or is it different for those with NA-T's?conundrum07 said:
I got a GTE and the needle would usually read 6-8 psi at idle, but I would get a bit concerned due to all the threads saying it should at least read 10psi.
^ A good example of false info running rampant. You would probably see ~10 psi after shimming your oil pump some.
