ZR1 boost gauge in 2005 ???
Any insight on how the boost gauge operates in the ZR1 cluster ?
I'd like to eliminate my Autometer gauge and use the factory ZR1 gauge instead.
I have an entire working ZR1 cluster. The only gauge that doesn't function right now is the boost gauge.
Does it see a value from the PCM/ECM or does it read from the MAP sensor ?
Any idea how to turn it on / make it work ?
I have no problem hacking into the harness or tracing wires.

But, It only reads to 15psi.
I am sure it works off of the MAP sensor, One that reads positive pressure. Should not be too hard to figure out and rewire.

It's definitely electronic... as it has stepper motors like all the other gauges.
When I start the car, it does the normal sweep action... so there is at least power going to it already.
I 'sorta think it needs a signal from the computer however to work.
I'm 'gonna have to do some research.

I know this is a old thread, but no one else talking about this subject, and I have searched...
does this work, if you have a 2-3 bar map installed in car? can you swap clusters and have the factory ZR1 boost gauge working?
