Zeitronix - Installed today!

Guys

I took Deputy Dogs advice and purchased the Zeitronix Gauge. It displays - AFR, Boost, EGT, ect.... It's also a Data Loger so you can hook your laptop up to it and see the readings by themselves and plotted with each other.... I was just out toying around with it and its amazing! I was able to go out and do a couple of quick spirted WOT's a 1.3 Bar and come home and analyze the AFR's and EGT at the point when boost changed higher or lower.... The Boost reads in Bar and or PSI... Also, you can customize the display on your laptop to only graph the data you want. You can plot data like: RPM, EGT, Lamda, Boost, AFR and others that wont be displayed on the main unit in the dash....

The Digital display that was mounted in the console works great! Its very bright, resposnive and easy to read while glancing quickly and driving at the same time... The Boost was 100% accurate or at least dead on what my Greedy Boost Controller was reading! It also came with a small LED light that was mounted next to it that can be set as a "Warning" light and buzzer when a specific reading goes to high or low.... This is great for AFR and Boost, you can adjust all of this with your laptop, this would be ideal for a track day when you are watching the track and not your aftermarket gauges!

The whole set up with Digital Display, Harness, Data Box, Trigger/Warning light, EGT Probe and bungs for the headers came out to like $650.00 shipped. The install on the other hand was pricey, but worth it as I wanted a clean install not only with the unit but the wiring and welds! To do it right and relocate the NAV CD Slot, relocate my Greedy Boost Gauge, weld the EGT bung in the headers, run the wiring for the AFR, Boost an EGT into the car from the engine under the carpet, through the consoles and into the center dash and make a mounting bracket cost me $800.00. They honestly had over 14 hours of labor but only charged me for 8 hours becuase this was the 1st set up the had done using the Zeitronix. I am sure that the next job could be done in 6 hours now that they have a blue print on how to do it...

Overall - Its a GREAT unit! It will come in very handy at the track to be able to analyze the data when the car is stopped or at home using the laptop!

I HIGHLY suggest it!

LOL - someone had to try it! I was waiting for one of you to do it..... So far, so good! I will keep you posted...

On Monday, I am going to put the car on the Dyno again and compare the readings of the Zeitronix unit and the Dyno (Boost and AFR)... I will keep you posted as to the results!

Is that a Greddy Turbo Timer I see??? Thinking of adding this device, but some seem to believe warm downs are unnecessary.

Dave,

I have a few questions regarding your install.

Were you able to take the boost signal from the line running to the Greddy unit or did you have to run a dedicated line?

Did you weld bungs on your exhaust for the wideband O2 sensors or take the signal fron the factory O2 sensors?

Did you pick up an AFR signal from both sides (and use the programable spare user input for the second side reading)?

Did you mount EGT sensors on both headers?

Why did you weld a EGT bung in the header? Most exhausts, including stock ones, have an EGT bung already. My Miltek and my new EP have them as well. Thanks, Kevin

Kevin,

I was under the impression that the exhaust bungs are for AFR O2 sensors and EGT is taken by tapping the headers with a temp probe.
