Hey,what about ALTA gauges for R56...?
They should have been ready days ago!

 

Hey low! Thank you for your post. I am finishing the details (making things perfect) and there is a sneak photo in the Dyno Test n-Tune

Sorry for the delay. PLUS the ECU stuff we have been working a ton on.

Back to the dyno!

Have a great night.

Hopefully for Christmas (and hopefully my DS MSC will be here by then). . . .

 

It will DEFINITELY be before Christmas (the gauge pod that is. I don't have a magic ball for your car. But for your sake I hope it arrives early!)

OOOOk! Prepare to send the gauges in Italy! Anyway,what about the packages that are going to be available? Such as turbo boost+oil temp or turbo boost+EGT and so on...
Is it possible to have the temps in degrees centigrade?

 

The current ones are only in psi, deg f. etc. I may be able to get metric for my overseas friends.

Best to e-mail me at work and I will get back asap.

Thank you!

 

Hey Adam, any word on when these will be ready for R56? They look sweet.

 

I just showed them actually to a local client that stopped by! He loved them. I pushed back delivery a bit so we could concentrate on a couple items before hand. Still going strong toward a Dec. (early) release. Sorry for the delay. Please don't think we are dragging our heels!

Should be ready about the same time as my S. . . . We need PIX Adam!!

 

There is a sneak peak on the ECU thread here as well. I know this one is long in the making, but as always it WILL be worth it!

Chat soon!

 

Update?

 

YEAH! UPDATE! UPDATE! UPDATE!

 

Currently being sold but not on the website. My bad! Working on that as we speak!

Sorry for the delay!

 

are they plug and play? Also, do they come with white faces?

 

I never realized (before it arrived) that the R56 MCS has no way to view the water temp
Here's to hoping your setup has a clean factory looking install & gauge for that

btw, business hours would be another great addition to the website, did a wishful drive-by this past weekend.

You can wire it up differently to have different color with lights on/off.

 

Do you have a solution for tapping into oil temp and/or pressure?

 

Any white background like the stock one?

 

They are white during the day (lighting) and amber at night. Is that what you meant?

White faces aren't available.

 

Thanks for the tip! We will be opening on Saturdays soon. (I believe after the Grand Opening.)

Yes water temp is just the same as the boost. Installs easily as well. I had them in Howard that way and really found it beneficial. Especially when using the ALTA PnP ECU.

Thanks again!

 

Not plug n play. Does require some MINOR wiring for illumination, power and ground. But the instructions do depict how to do that. There is no drilling in the car etc.

White faces, not available. Sorry!

 

Just checked my e-mail and they will be on our website later today. More info will start filling each of the tabs in the coming days. I told them the pricing and photos were most important for now.

chat soon!

 

Hey guys quick note to those that got some of the first shipments. WE discovered today that Four kits went out that are missing two relatively crucial items to connect the boost gauge and the gauge pod to the Tach.

1) 1/8 NPT 1/8" Nipple

2) (2) Screws

If you have a kit be sure to open it and find out if these are missing if so contact me ASAP. Sorry for any inconvenience!

 

That's a bummer. Having gauges that don't match just look bad to me.

 

Actually, I just installed the gauges (not hooked up, etc as I am one of the 4 noted in the prior post) and they look really good. I will post pictures as soon as they are all ready to go. One thought would be to add the satin black faces to the tach and speedo if your really want a color match. But, I think you will be surprised (I was ) as the plastic match is very good and the hoods on the gauges adds to the "pod" effect of the tach and gauges.
