dude its a factory boost gauge :)

Should always be sitting in negative unless you put ur foot down and come into boost. +7 would be above or at 7psi of boost!

If your car was N/A it'd have a voltage meter lol

there are ppl who told me that it should sit at zero, and that my car is running 10psi

its like stock as a rock :P

in my R33 the +7 and -7 is my stock boost guage. When I put my foot down it will jump up to about the +3.5 mark, it is not a PSI reasing it is a 100xHg so I think it turns out to be around 6 or 7 psi. But thats in the R33 models, dont know if thats the same in the R32s.

My car has a cat back exhaust and runs 10psi as stock, I have a greddy boost gauge because the dash one lies and plays up all the time. But when it's working the greddy says 0.7bar and the dash boost says +7. So don't know whats going on there. I thought that R32 runs 10pound stock?

    • Hey @Butters, did you end up getting this clutch in ? I have just ordered to a uniclutch track to go in my getrag 6 speed that’s in my BNR 32     
    • I know you don't want to hear this comment, but I can't not say it.  I just can't see 200kw being worth the time and effort. Its like guys with NA cars, putting in headers/exhaust/tune for a massive 20% jump in power. Great, the slow car is still slow and you're down $10,000.  My vote is leave it NA or price in a gearbox upgrade and shoot for at least 300KW, preferably 350KW+.  Now you have a NC that will try to kill you from time to time and will be exciting to drive
    • Ah yep. The main message I want to pass on is, try not to get scared of ghosts when thinking about knock/knock detection.  What I mean is, healthy engines make noise. Knock is also noise. Your knock sensor and ECU combo are trying to determine bad noise from good noise based on how loud the noise is. The factory knock sensors and ECU are not good at doing this.  Modern ECU's are pretty decent at it, however I'd still say that you would want to verify that if your ECU says it's knock, that you actually listen to it and confirm that it is correct.  Are you familiar with the plex knock monitor?  https://www.plex-tuning.com/products/plex-knock-monitor-v3/ I expect you're the type of person that would be very keen to play with something like this. It is great knock detection and you can pop some headphones on and listen to what's going on.  Knock that you've deliberately induced in low load low RPM areas is not really putting anything at risk and is a great tuning/learning/verification tool.  I just thought this was worth mentioning based on the way you were talking about setting up a base map and the Haltech base map settings. There are better ways to spend your time then chasing ghosts and worrying about detonation in scenarios that it is crazy unlikely to encounter it.  I was also wondering, what ECU are you planning to get? Will it be long til you pick it up?
    • This came quicker than I thought. It ain't even 2025 yet.
    • I somehow quoted my post instead of editing it. I regret nothing.
