@Shiv, boost gauge question

I've bought at quite new Procede Rev II now from a guy here who is parting out his tune. Is it possible for you to display the boost pressure in e.g. the existing watch display window since Procede rev II works on the CAN bus ? It would be nice to trash the ugly analog meter if possible

I want it totally integrated and as clean as possible. Let's see Shiv's comment, this would take the Procede a step ahead in the vendor competition

A boost display using the existing screen would be the most integrated, but reaching that goal is a major undertaking... I wouldn't hold by breath... you are talking about replacing data on a screen that the procede is not directly connected to... (PROcede is on the PT-can, cluster is on the K-Can)...

Not saying it isn't possible... just saying, I would be surprised if it happened anytime soon

Is this not clean and integrated?

you have to consider that if Shiv does it, it will pretty much tank Rixsters gauge sales.

Maybe. I like it and would not try to sell it if Shiv does something. I would like to be able to toggle between AFR/Water Temp/EGT's/Oil Pressure, but still like the idea of having a seperate larger boost reading with Rick's gauge.

Doubful... if you look at my last two group buys, less than 10% of people who bought the gauge had a PROcede... the gauge is a hot seller with all tunes, flashes, piggies, t-map tunes, and even stock cars.

yeh id have to disagree there as well... i wouldn't want to sacrifice what i already have just to see the boost in the dash display. i prefer it nice and clear on the side with the digital display and rising and falling bar's

The peak recall on the rix gauge is very important and I often don't see how high boost spiked until checking this out. I doubt a dash display would be this fancy.

Shiv's currently working on a few other goodies
