I am probably going to go cheap and just get a new Greddy boost controller w/ will give boost levels and buy a basic A/F gauge.

Edwin, what is the price for the new Brockway?

innovate and AEM both uses the same sensor so leaded fuel will have negatice impact of both of them. They use Bosch sensors, i beleive the NGK sensor is better for eladed fuel but don't take my word for it. It is also more expensive and they won't fit the above kit. I don't know of any fancy gauge for the NGK, they are all big boxes you got to put on the steering column.

I don't know if our car uses Bosch or NGK as widebands.

Obviously, the Brockway has to take his measure at the same place as the dash does, pretty much sure at least.

Someone mentionned EGT? Do we have EGT sensors on our cars?

Guys, Brockway was making our R9000 multi-gauge with orange LED's to match the Porsche interior (the brockway is green), under a private label agreement. The older version (R920) read boost, but only with an optional sensor purchased through Brockway. The newer design did away with this feature, as it was not a big seller. As for accuracy, it is extremely accurate, since it takes the data directly from the OEM wideband 02's and ECU, which is what the ECU uses to tell the car how much air/fuel to mix, etc. It displays exactly what is occuring in regards to AFR with your car. As others mentioned, Durametric uses the same data.

It's too bad that this gauge was discontinued, as it's a gem of a unit. Perhaps, if there is enough interest, I could get Brockway to do a single run for us. I think I would need about 20-30 units though...and certainly there is no guarantee that this would happen. If there is any interest in this, let me know here and I will see if I can get it done...

That's going to be the cleanest setup honestly sean. One day I'm going to have mine mounted by custom car stereo. Gotta get some new toys for the car first

Edwin,

I have no idea, but I would say the same as what is was before would be the goal...keep in mind, the last I was told is there would be no more, so don't get your hopes up too much. I'll ask again and see what they say.

Sean, this is what you need. AEM Wideband A/F meter and Autometer Phantom peak/hold boost gauge.

Edwin,

Contact Brockway, he is considering doing another run to satisfy the lingering demand. At the cost for a new run and minimum order, we're passing on having any more made...
