Dsmchips

How do you read the knocksum gauge on the factory boost gauge? I just bought the dsmchip stage 3 chip and added the factory boost gauge to become a knocksum gauge but how do you read it?

Re: Dsmchips

-7 is just a hair above the bottom. When the needle points to zero on the gauge, it indicates 5 counts of knock.

Re: Dsmchips

Oh, my bad! I had no idea that the 2g gauge doesn't have numbers. Looks like the 5 count line is just about even with the first mark on the oil pressure gauge.
