Cluster Finished! Digital Display and Speedhut's

Well I finally got around to making my Cluster, I still need to wire it all in, just isn’t at the top of my priority list. I need to make a trans mount so I can send the trans out, then finish up my exhaust. Plus I need to still wire in my fuel/relay panel for my engine. I was going to go with a racepak then when I added up all the sensors I was into the $3000 range and thought that was a bit overkill for a Stock LS Turbo street car

Maxi Gauge- Maxi Display (made in turkey by Hakan, I emailed him direct when I stumbled upon this)

http://www.techturkey.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=48

I talked with the maker Hakan and he set it up for my preferences. He can basically have it log sensor you want. Its customizable to 7 inputs and standard has EGT and he offers 4 different size displays. There is one that is a tad bigger than mine. Came in around $500 shipped to my door with an EGT sensor, Oil Pressure sensor, and 2 bullet style temp sensors.

Here is what mine controls…

MAP/Boost- KPA (did this for accurate tuning if I see a surge etc)
Intake Temp
Oil Temp
Trans Temp
Coolant Temp
Oil Pressure
TPS % (also to help with tuning)
EGT (logged off cylinder 7)

Innovate SCG-1
AFR gauge, with Boost gauge, built in boost controller, fail safe and shift light

Speedhut

3 3/8 GPS Speedo with integrated high beam and signals (has many functions like 0-60, ¼ mile, elevation, peak mph etc)
3 3/8 8000rpm Tach with integrated shift light
Fuel Pressure
Fuel level (can’t really see in the pic)
Volts (can’t really see in the pic)



Here is a quick video he made before he sent me it to insure I liked the layout.

Interesting. Reminds me of an old Gameboy screen. Works perfectly in a third gen. Very period correct.

Re: Cluster Finished! Digital Display and Speedhut's

Pretty well what im going for. Originally I was going to do VDO gauges since they are more similar to stock as well. Im trying to keep the car stock appearing in/out. Minus wheels since I need 17" wheels minimum to clear my brakes.

Never did update this with it lit up.

I should of scrolled through the menu's in the video. Each one of the sensors can be pulled up in LARGE on the dash like the pic below. It has a peak recall also. Same with Built in alarms for high or low pressure etc

Re: Cluster Finished! Digital Display and Speedhut's

Looks good. I did a full speedhut custom gauge layout on my firebird this winter and can't wait to get it on the road and see how they work. I went with the 4.5" gps speedo and tach and a quad gauge and a dual gauge.
