Air Intake Meter?

[boozehound]

This might have already been answered but can you put a turbo meter in this car? you know what i mean when i say turbo meter? like a air intake meter on the dash?

It's not an air intake meter, it's an air pressure meter :) I'm sure it can be installed on Auris...

Do you mean a turbo boost gauge to measure the amount of positive pressure received by the engine?

[boozehound]

yes, thats the one

Never fitted one myself but don't see any reason why it shouldn't be fairly straightforward as plenty gauges etc. available. Think the biggest issue would be where to measure the pressure from, if between turbo and intercooler think you might get a false reading, would suggest measuring as close to inlet as possible. I'm no expert here so suggest asking someone with better knowledge about where to measure. There might even be a convenient hose you could put a T peice in, but don't really know myself ... sorry.

Other thing to remember is to get a gauge with appropriate scale on it ... no use getting one that won't really measure within your boost range. Some measure in PSI some in Bar or Kpa etc so have to get one to suit you.

Mechanical gauges with an internal Bourdin tube are likely to be much cheaper than electronic ones.

what about these gauges that read from the obd 2 port?
