Might be selling: DEFI BF Amber 60mm...Boost/EGT/Controller2
Probably be selling the following:
1. DEFI AMBER 60mm Boost (Metric) with Sensor/T-fitting/Wiring
2. DEFI AMBER 60mm EGT Gauge with Exhaust Sensor/Wiring
3. DEFI Controller V2/wiring
LMK if anyone is interested...would like to sell as a set...Everything is working fine.
PM me legitimate offers if interested...no low ballers..tired of that stuff...or you can call me at:
330-7718
Brent
I may sell a DEFI Pod and a separate AVO Fiberglass pod as separate pieces once I figure out what I need...but the gauges do not come with a pod.

Thanks for the bump Orville^^^^
Hey Walter...
The exhaust temp is kind of a pain...especially for me. I have a set of the GT Spec V2 SS header...
I talked to Ryan at Vakamon yesterday (VERY Helpful and Knowledgable guy...Always a big THANKS to Ryan) and he said that you have to tap into the header by drilling, then either tapping it (cast iron stock header) or welding in a bung for the SS since the material is so thin, you cannot tap threads into it...
You have to remove the header to do this properly if you have a turbo...the metal shaving from drilling and tapping/welding could be the death to the turbo...too much work...I've already taken my dp/up/header off twice now...don't want to make it 3...pushing my luck for leaks I think...probably good to do on a non-turbo engine as well due to the "coff coff" catalytic converter in-line going to the exhaust...don't want to plug that up either....
Anyhow...if you remove your gauges, you will have to plug up any sensor outputs...
I"ll PM you the information as soon as I can.

^^^Dale...I am still going with the double din...
just trying to get one at a decent price...I still plan on using the DEFI 3 gauge pod...just need to replace out the EGT with something more user install friendly...don't want to mess with the header anymore unless I change it out with an equal length header or something....
busy weekend so let me see what is going on...Saturday is out for sure...but maybe one of the other days if the family doesn't decide to do something...
