Setup a Boost/Vacuum Gauge in HP Tuners!!

In this quick video I show you how to easily setup a boost/vac gauge in the HP Tuners Scanner to log your boost and vacuum.

2:05 Yeah the location and size is by far the worst thing with the HPTuners scanner.. I really don't see why they can't just allow you to click on the gauge and move it/resize it wherever you want using the cursor... it should have been that way from the initial release of the software!

Correct me if I'm wrong but you have the boost gauge labeled as inHg but the vacuum is being displayed as negative psi instead of inHg?

Awesome just what i wanted to know

Thanks! This worked a treat while trying to diagnose some missing power on an LTG Camaro we ran at Big Bend Open Road Race this last weekend.

Awesome to hear!!! You're welcome.

Scott, care to share your gauge layout with me? i really like the way it looks and this video helped me make the boost gauge. thanks

[@scottcoleman162]

Sure can, just PM me your email address.

Yeahhh I'm gonna stick with the boost gauge coming off the manifold seems to be the most accurate, for the life of me I can't get this right, my tuner says he's seeing 9lbs just what my gauge says here it says 5inHg and vacuum goes way farther to -25.66

Thanks

When I did this just now, my boost reads DOUBLE, but vacuum reads correctly. If I make the gauge read in PSI, it reads BOOST correctly, but vacuum is halved, lol. Both MAP-2 Bar, and Baro in the channels, read kPa...if that helps. Any idea what I did wrong?

[@scottcoleman162]

It seems like I've ran into this before, but I can't recall the changes I made to fix it. Maybe try changing the map in the channel with a different one... I should note that do not believe the vacuum is always as accurate as a mechanical vacuum gauge would be. I've noticed on mine that the vacuum does read a little less than my gauge, but I'm not too concerned with logging vacuum. Probably the best thing to do is to setup a dedicated gauge just for vacuum.

Thank you!
