Default Blitz turbo timer/boost gauge almost done...

Blitz dual turbo timer/boost gauge project update:

Turbo timer is up and working.

Boost gauge isn't, but only because the length of hose they provide doesn't reach that intake runner port. I didn't have time to run to the auto parts store on Sunday, so hopefully tonight I'll finish that up.

The unit displays red when the headlights are on...I'm running two red LED's, and I'm thinking of decreasing the resistance b/c it is not quite bright enough. It's bright enough to see, but it isn't as bright as the rest of the dash.

I'm disappointed with the "Blitz dual turbo timer" label in puke green. And the unit is gunmetal gray, not black. So I think another project is coming over me: I'm going to set the display and buttons in the cupholder faceplate, so it will look more stock (stockier (!?)).

The timer works like a champ...James R's FAQ helped, altho' everyone should read my addendum below, or else, you too, can curse his name as you stare into the gaping hole of your dash
I love the countdown beeping...sounds like a time bomb.<ul><li><a href="https://www.audiworld.com/forum/m/a4/msgs/313644.phtml">My FAQ addendum</a></li></ul>
