Easy
Put the car in accessory mode
On gauge scroll thru the options and you will see one say ic pump
Click on it and you will hear pump go on
This is what I use in staging lanes after putting ice in the hx tank and it cools down blower niecly

I don't recall seeing IC Pump when I used to scroll through all the sensors, but I'll check it when I get my car back this wknd. I also only saw IAT2. Is it possible my options are fixed differently? I have the alcohol % used for flex fuel, so maybe it was custom?

It was also listed as the NorcalSS gauge when they sold it to me w their stg2 pkg.
ill have the car back from the dealer this weekend so I'll recheck. There's a ton of options when I scrolled. I just don't recall the IC pump. Then again I mostly leave it on Alcohol% and IAT2

Couple of questions...
The "HX Tank" that you refer to... I don't see this on your website. Is this the same as the "GranTank INtercooler expansion tank"?
Is this the tank that's needed in order to be able to turn on the intercooler pump while the engine is off?
Can you please explain the ICE comment? Does this tank actually have a lid that you open and insert ice, or do you just put a bag of ice atop the tank?
Sorry just trying to find a way to keep the blower cool, so that I can run over and over again at the 1/4 mile without loosing power.
Thx

Excellent, this is probably what I need then.
My goal is to be able to "hot lap" the car, then get right back in the line after each run, (after adding ice) without a loss of power due to supercharger heat soak.
I am hoping that the Granatelli tank and the intercooler pump controlling guage kit that you offer will accomplish this.

Just a heads up... I have this gauge in my LT4 16 CTS-V and it does not read boost correctly. Aeroforce says they heard the same with the Z06 and will need to get one of these cars in there to figure it out. Once they do that, I'd have to ship the gauge back to them for another reflash.

More detail on the operation of the IC PUMP, with engine off.
After connecting the "c7 Z06 Gauge"....
I just spent an hour actually trying to find the "ic pump" option, and then trying to get it to work... so allow me to share my experience to save YOUR time in the future, if you are installing (or using) this gauge.
1. Make sure your car is OFF and the ACC mode is ON:
Simply pressing the start/stop button does NOT put your car into Accessory mode, even though many believe this, and this is the erroneous information that I found when I researched this. You actually have to HOLD THE BUTTON DOWN for 7-10 seconds (without your foot on the brake (or clutch) in order for the ACC mode to be enabled.
2. Hit both buttons (on the gauge) at the same time to go to the "function menu".
3. Hit the left button to scroll down through a few screens, until you find the "controls" option, and then use the right button to select "controls".
4. Use the left button again to scroll down until you get to "ic pump", then select "ic pump" using the right button.
After you do this, you will see this message on the screen:
"Hit any key to exit". You should also hear the IC PUMP begin running, if you listen close enough.
5. To turn it off, you must hit the left button (on the gauge), NOT "any button" as the message indicates.
Hope this helps you guys!!
My next challenge is to actually mount the gauge, I watched the video and I really do not want to disassemble all of those parts off of the dash, that looks like a major PITA.
Alternate mounting locations, anyone????
Thanks, Andy
