What boost range does the S5 TII gauge cover?
It goes from 0 to 45 mmHg, but what is that in PSI?
|
like 9 or something
|
iirc it is 45mm X 10 which is 450mm in which case converts to 17psi, the gauges seem fairly innacurate and i don't see why they would need to read that high since fuel cut is 9.6psi on the s5 and 8.5 on S4.
i hate math but here is the formula: psi = mm of Hg x (1.9339 x 10-2) that is 10 to the second power. |
nerds...
but seriously, that should have been 10^2 :) |
450mmHg is equal to 8.7psi

does the stock gauge physically read pressure or does it "guess" like DSM boost gauges?

Ahh the dreadded DSM gauge I hate my starion for that. 5psi at idle my ass it only boosts to 7psi.
And here I thought it was psi = mm of Hg x (1.96439 x 10^2) oh well wont be the last time I am wrong. |

Depin the pin 2B on the ECU and the boost gauge will still read as before (series four pin 2B). |

No. It reads it from the boost sensors output wire, the brown/red wire. The same one that splices off and goes to the ECU. The ECU has nothing to do with how the boost gauge reads.
