Looked just about everywhere to calibrate the Boost .
Im turning to you guys for help.

Right now I have:

3.5 bar load
engine load #2 psi
Start Cell 0 = -15
End Cell 255 = 20



Ecu is set to psi.
Everything is working fine except the boost ?

Im still getting stupid numbers
Can anyone help?

 

no one knows ?
or no one has it

 

 

LOL...I have a serial gauge. Can you describe what type of "stupid numbers"?

 

in the folder with the setup files for the AEM serial gauge pick the file that says 3.5 bar. now the psi gauge settings should be scaled correctly. when you edit the start and end cells it really needs to line up with what the ecu is sending to the gauge, not what you want to see. Since in your setup the ecu can see up to 3.5bar (36.75psi) and you have the gauge scaled to 20 psi, that's why you have the "stupid numbers".

once you have it scaled correctly all you'll really need to do is scale how the LED's display. so if you're running 20psi and want the last LED to light up at full boost you'll scale the LED's so cell 1 is LED 1 and the cell that lines up with 20 psi (cell 178) is LED 24.

actually since the boost gauge is linear the setup is pretty easy. 3.5 bar settings, use "auto fill" on the engine load gauge look up table.

For the love of god I still can't get my serial gauge to connect to my laptop

from hokies2000:

1) connect gauge to serial port or serial/usb adapter. *don't turn on the car or ignition*
2) open pro gauge.
3) open the base calibration map.
4) in the toolbar, click the drop-down and select your com port.
5) click the connect button after selecting the com port.
6) turn on the ignition. the gauge should connect.

I've tried this on the correct com port and it never connects. The gauge works when connected to my ems, I just want to be able to customize it etc

 

try powering the gauge first then trying to connect. waiting on the power is the trick for the EMS. it's not your fault, it's AEM's fault, the gauge is great but setting it up initially blows.

no problem
