Boost Guage - 1.9L Grande Punto
 

Didn't want to start a new thread, so here is my question. Anybody here with a Grande Punto diesel who has installed a boost gauge?Need some pointers, thanks.

I guess, you won't find a Fiat Grande Punto at the Diesel Bombers site- it's a typical european car, not being delivered to the united states of america.
Just get a VDO, Racimex or whatever called unit, tap into the intake or use an already existing plug.

Mounting?:
just seek for a A-pillar pod. It will display the guage conveniently at eyes sight.


Make sure that the connecting hose diameter is small- it prevents needle flutter due to pressure fluctuations.

In a Grande with chiptuning only, you may get away without a boost guage.
Instead of thinking to add fancy gadets, add an oil cooler to compensate the additional heat stress on the engine.

If you start to modify your engine with bigger injectors, then it may be advisable to have a boost guage and a pyrometer.

Well that is bad news but thanks for that my friend! I intend to install an oil temp gauge and a pyrometer as well.:tu:

And all this time I've been thinking that "grande punto" was a naughty thing to call somebody's mother.
