Had the same gauge setup in my gu for over a year now and it’s been flawless. Love having the egt warning to yell at me when I’m giving it too much up a hill😂
Just so you are aware, this is actually a direct copy of a Japanese brand called Defi so be careful telling peopt to buy these over eBay copies as this is also a direct copy of another manufacturers product. Love your work though boys, keep it up 👍
Took the words right out of my mouth here. I know these copies are appealing with young fella's that don't want/can spend the big bucks on genuine but justraceparts didn't "design" anything here.
@@jayarre1839 bruh....... It doesn't matter whether the engine is petrol or diesel, a turbo engine without any load on the turbo will have vacuum/negative manifold pressure
Just as a matter of interest, I fitted a similiar unit to my Defender Tdi300 called the Madman EMS. I was shocked to see the old landy (518k Km on the odo) running at 760 deg C when at full boost. Nearly had a heart attack! Completely changed my driving style on old diesels after seeing that!
Liam- Put a intercooler on it either a factory gu one but make sure it has a fan or HPD. Which I run are unreal and my EGT with 12psi sits about 220* at 100 and goes only upto 300* when I boot it cheers
@@jamescleaver6749 good point mate. I ran my black top big pump 20psi loves life but definitely can't trust those as much as factory turbo or silver top
Love your work guys. I would recommend a boost controller and a proper dyno tune to keep it safe and reliable. They are worth the extra bucks for sure. I have a GU TD42 intercooled with a 3inch exhaust and my figures went from 65.8kw (rear wheels) @ 9.9psi boost to 104.7kw @ 14.8psi. This is considered a conservative tune with great benefits. The factory intercooler did very little at this stage after which I upgraded with a large HPD top mount. Dyno tune was $320, Boost controller was $90. The intercooler was the expensive part ($2140) but I did the install myself. The way you guys operate you would have no problem installing an intercooler yourself. Keep up the great work!
Thanks for this. Been wanting to fit a simple additional temp gauge / buzzer but I think this will do so much more and be a great deal more useful . Really liked the way you positioned the camera on the gauge when describing, too. Top banana!
Will be looking into this gauge for my Cummins isb4.5 conversion I’m putting in my wagon, I didn’t want to have a shit load of single gauges like I put in the TD42T cheers legends 👍👍👍
@@jasper287 a pulse is not a vacuum. Petrols have a throttle body when its shut the engine is still rotating drawing air in if no air can get in you have a low pressure vacuum. No fuck off
Your egt’s will stay relatively high with no intercooler and on hot days with throw your AFR’s out, a cross country intercooler is quite expensive but worth the money
Hey Guys, I was going to order a hoodie but you only have them in 3XL, I'm a big bloke so I'm not sure if that size will fit me... Love that gauge, I might fit one to my 80 series, will you have a discount code in the future or is that grasping at straws?
how is the setup working over time,would it be better to place the control box under the bonnet then you only need to run one wire through the firewall.
Hey there, I was trying for ages to do this as well. In case you haven't figured it out you have to turn the ignition on to turn on the unit, slide the switch to SET on the remote, then press the WARN.SET button, then highlight BOOST on the screen (should be the first one), then hold the WARN.SET button until you hear a single beep. It will now be calibrated to zero.
Hey boys just got my new jrp 14in 1 screen was just wondering if your screen come with a mounting bracket and if the controller box come with the wiring to connected to power cheers
