Re: turbo RPM gauge...check it out! (G)
Its the mount for the sensor......
if thats the case, does it replace part of the housing, or does it attach on to the intake port? can't figure it out

Re: turbo RPM gauge...check it out! (MiraiZ)
how is that pic confusing.. the sensor sees the turbine spinning.. like abs wheel speed sensors work. looks like you run the wires throught the pipe then out a drilled hole or something.

This Meter is developed to measure Turbo charged car condition.
Turbo charged car, due to lack of oil control, occurs etching in turbine,
by adopting non-contact optical fiber sensor, make possible to protect
above trouble and by adopting pulse motor, make strong to vibration and
indicate correct display. Also contains CPU circuit which make possible Max.
okay... can someone translate that to more understanable english?

Seriously, that is cool idea! They need a little help in the marketing dept for US customers though.

Re: turbo RPM gauge...check it out! (POLLO)
the more a I look at this thing, the more I want it...but it looks like some fabrication will be needed to the turbo..

Re: turbo RPM gauge...check it out! (dlplayboy)
I don't think its new, but I 've never seen it before...the only thing I'm concerned about is having that optical sensor being sucked into the blades...

Re: turbo RPM gauge...check it out! (MiraiZ)
It only goes to 20,000 RPM's...
Dont the T3/T4's spin much higher than that, like 100,000 RPM's (+/- 20,000 or so)?
