ultragauge 'ed'

[raffa]

hey all,
after no love searching for a dashhwak for a while i decided to bite the bullet and but the new version of the ultragauge titles the 'em' basicly the same deal now with boost (in psi) and readouts in aus units ie: kw, Celsius & kph.
The unit, windscreen mount and velcro pads cost $97aud to my door then theres a $9usd mail rebate ( cbf! )
shipping took near on 3 weeks from the states

so the it arrived today and after a quick play it feels very light yet well made, screen is birght and easy to read and the buttons on the back dont feel like they will fall off in 2 weeks, however the clip that holds the unit onto the windscreen mount will probably break quite quickly if constantly removed and put back.

after doing a initial setup which took about 2 min it found 60 possible gauges for the gen 1, you can dislpay either 4, 6 or 8 on gauges on a single page with upto 4 pages to be set on a slideshow type progression with intervals chosen by you

heres a 10 sec video i took today

so the gauges in the video are

boost (psi) l RPM
KPH l brake killawatts
KMs to empty l intake temp in c*
throttle pos l another kw readout ( can remember what for )

so far the only downside i can find its it doesnt quite read in 'realtime' you can change the update to a max of 0.3 sec and it isnt slow but not quite as quick as some of you would like

im thinking of making a mount for it to flush fit next to the cigg lighter in the gen 1 as it will fit perfectly

anyway for less than a $100 landed and with the daskhawk becoming increasingly harder to find im fairly happy
will report any issues as i find em, if i find em

Hey mate, can you please post a link to the sale item?
Also, what's the installation like, and where are you plugging it into? The ECU's service port?

Pretty good value!

I have a dashdaq and cant manage to get boost to display in psi which is very frustrating

[raffa]

yeah it plugs into any car with the obdII port and the link is
UltraGauge Automotive Information Center and OBDII Scan Tool
just make sure you choose the 'ed' model

[MadAussie]

Thanks mate! I think you mean 'EM' model?

Is the OBDII Port in the engine bay? How are you feeding the plug through the fire-wall?

[raffa]

lol yeah EM ooops and it plugs into the port under the dsc button panel

On the 6 the OBDII port is above the brake pedal and below the steering column. Have a fish around there and you will find it.

Good little unit at a great price!

Have you installed the Dashhawk software? There must be somewhere to adjust in there...

I brought mine second hand and was already done, maybe start a new thread about it sure you'll find an answer
