Got the ProSport gauges installed part 1

Got the ProSport gauges installed
The gauges look sweet. However, I don't remember my Autometer gauge reading ~28hG when not in boost. I am Cobb Stage 2 and only get to about 13-14 PSI at max boost. I thought it was supposed to be more than that, so maybe the gauge isn't completely accurate? Anyone else find PS gauges were inaccurate?

Just installed mine yesterday, have the exact same problem.. reads about 3psi less than what im actually proven to be running :(
Matth3w 02-23-2007 08:34 PM

Anyone else?

Call the manufacturer for troubleshooting guidance. There may be an easy fix.
You get what you pay for though. ;)

my prosport electronic boost gauge reads the same as my AEM EMS off the factory map sensor

matt & confuzion...Is this a electrical or mech, or Premium Boost gage you are speaking of??
confuzion 02-24-2007 08:24 AM

hey bud, electrical for me

electrical for me as well. i have the same gauge he has only mine is green.
Kahres05 02-24-2007 12:07 PM

I have the glow shift gauges, They are identical besides the outer ring. I have had no problems with my gauges...I find my boost gauge very accurate. Stock everything on my car and it's reading just a tick under 15lbs of boost, just as Subaru promised. The great thing about glow shift is I have 7 colors to choose from in stead of just white and green. I had auto meter gauges before at twice the price and were not near as accurate as these.

Call Prosport and get a replacement under warranty, sounds like the sensor is off both ways from zero, it sounds like a calibration problem.

I have their boost gauge and it reads perfectly when running, but reads just shy of 1psi when the engine is off, so i just let it be since i only care what it does when its actually working. (BTW, im running electric boost gauge)
kirkeemonster 02-24-2007 05:21 PM

I have the blue electric boost from Prosport and using my UTEC/logging, they are off by .5 psi if that at some times, so +123456789 because for the price and how accurate they are, totally rule. Haven't had any problems with that yet...the EGT on the other hand... ;)
Matth3w 02-24-2007 08:40 PM

What is the PSI supposed to be at for STG2?
Trigun001 02-24-2007 09:18 PM

depends on your EM. Im 17 psi but im using ecutek.
Matth3w 02-24-2007 09:19 PM

i have cobb
Matt_H 02-25-2007 01:39 AM

I just got my Prosport electric hooked up last night I was hitting 14psi, stage 2 WRX with AP. I also had the AP hooked up at the same time and they both reading the same psi.
danscoobywagon 02-25-2007 02:09 PM

you guys like your gauges. i was considering picking up a set.
Matth3w 02-25-2007 02:24 PM

if i could find out if they were accurate or not.
WRX_06 02-25-2007 03:03 PM

I installed a mecanical one and I think it works fine. I have an 06 WRX bone stock and reads about 14 psi
subiebui 02-25-2007 03:12 PM

im getting a set of prosport gauges this coming weekend, hopefully mine dont have this problem. but is there something wrong with the EGT?? im getting one of those in the deal too..
spoolindc2 02-25-2007 03:26 PM

hmm sounds like prosport isn't too pro about their readings... i do love the look of the gauge tho...
subieracer18 02-25-2007 03:51 PM

I sure do hope prosport chimes in here in this thread. I'm sure there are a few people that were trying to but these that aren't now. I for one will wait to see if they are accurate or not before i purchase them.

Is red one of those 7 colors? :D

Answer to my own question: yes
jet2686 02-25-2007 07:30 PM

I just bought the gauges i have the BOost gauge not installed Electrical 52mm Green/White. and im waiting on EGT and Oil Press

im at Cobb stage 2 with Invidia N1 Race Cat-Back and Invidia V2 Catless Down PIPE.

I know in forth at around 3500 - 4000 RPM im pushing around 15.5 PSI give or take

You can always check if the gauge is accurate or not, with the A.P.
Matth3w 02-25-2007 07:31 PM

how are you checking the psi with the ap?
Matt_H 02-25-2007 07:42 PM

With the V2 it has the live data.
Matth3w 02-25-2007 07:56 PM

oh ok i have v1
Boxer4u 02-25-2007 08:12 PM

you can read live boost with the AP V.1 too! Just plug in the AP to your OBDII port. The AP will turn on and selct read live boost. I belive that is the correct order.

You can always read the manual and see the exact instructions to "read live Boost".
Matth3w 02-25-2007 08:31 PM

ok thanks! i will try it tomorrow or so...depending on time.
DTwrx 02-25-2007 09:29 PM

My mech. Prosport boost gauge is spot on with my AP readings.

14psi is normal for the WRX. call us up or email us direct if you are having any problems, we stand behind our products 100%.
IA Performance in AZ tested our gauges last year along with Greddy, autometer, & Defi. The results were surprising...We knew how accurate our gauges were, but were surprised by how inaccurate the competitors were. We came out as the most accurate Boost gauge in that group! Of course anything can happed during shipping, so we will gladly test/check/fix/replace anything we carry.

Is this normal?
Please help.

i would say check to make sure you wired the gauge to a steady constant source. otherwise the readings could be off the mark. i believeit has to stay constant through start-up. correct me if i am wrong. when i installed my autometer electronic boost gauge i wired it too the wrong wire and it was completely out of whack.

i'm sure the wiring is correct.
at this point, i don't know if is a gauge or a car related problem. the car feels normal, but this is my first turboed car.
