2017 z06 boost gauge issue
Hey guys, If you haven't noticed I'm new to the forum. I live way up in Saskatoon Canada. Anyways, I have a 2017 Z06 I just did the Procharger swap on. I'm sure the boost gauge worked before I took it for the tune, But it doesn't now. Everything under the hood looks fine. My questions are:
1. Is there anything that could have been changed in the tune to cause it to not work?
2. What sensor does it go off? I assume MAP but I can see on the scanner the map is working as it should
I thank anyone with any advice in advance.

Did you contact tune installer? If its something he didn't check in tune, might be his bad. PS: Hunted black bear up there with bow several years back-out in the boondocks you are!

When you say the gauge doesn't work, do you mean just in boost or it's completely dead? If it just fails to register boost, it's always possible you've got a problem with the bypass valve or similar and the motor isn't actually making boost, so it's good to check.
I'd assume it reads this from the MAP sensor. Do you have a scantool of any kind where you can check the MAP reading? I'd expect the car wouldn't run well at all if that was wrong or missing.

I installed it, I checked it over a few times now and it all looks great. I've never hunted but there's def game up here!

But in all seriousness, I'd probably sell the Z06, buy a Stingray and mod that instead. This Z06 is weak sauce and probably couldn't even beat a broken down Mustang GT.
