Pillar gauge.

[ford4life]

So i have a clear tube running up the pillar it looks like it is going to a vac line. i looked behind the pillar and there is wire there for lights on the gauge i guess. that kind of gauge would this have been? my guess would have to be a vac/boost.

Yea. But the people here know. Well i think anyway. they seem to know about this car.

 

[RawBurt]

I remember there being a boost / vac or vac gauge in steedas old car. i think

 

[ford4life]

Yea that's what it looked like to me. Can i hook just the vac gauge up? thats what he did seeing as the car is not boosted. if i did it would record vac right?

 

[ford4life]

Yep its a vac line

 

[RawBurt]

There is no point in wasting your time with a vacuum gauge.

 

[RawBurt]

I'm curious. Is that line plugged, capped or anything at the end? lol

Yay for two threads with the same damn question...:nonono:

The only good a boost/vac gauge is for an N/A car is that it gives a ROUGH approximation of gas mileage if you can figure it out and relate everything.

 

[RawBurt]

Boost/vac on N/A = rice bag

eh the other one was for something else.

So, all E36 M3s are rice bags from the factory?

 

[TheMexicanJob]

all i know is that it's depressing as hell to have a boost gauge in a car without a method of boost. when you floor it and it shoots to 0 and stops, you'll hate it.

the E36 has them as well? cause i hope you're not talking about your E46 M3 and sucking at realizing what you have.

If thats the case I stand corrected:shrug:

 

[TheMexicanJob]

some, not sure if it's all, bmw's have a factory vac gauge. i like looking at it, because it stops at zero, so it doesn't give lack of boost depression.

 

[Steeda...]

How about this. Since you seem to want to DESTROY the car i pretty much built into the car you see today minus headlights and freaking awesome seats and rims, I'll buy it back from you for what I paid for it orignally Cool?

the steeda has spoken.
