TTA cluster in !

well I finnally got the thing in and working, I ran into a lot of dead ends and had trouble getting all the schematics but, it is done! I switched over the tach board and motor from the v8 and since I was never able to get the boost guage part to work using the original hardware I had to use the guts from a turbo grand am cluster (which works good since I am using a 2bar map) surprisingly the guage is not that far off. if I use a hand pump and manual guage I found that as boost is increased it is almost dead on. (somethng to look forward to once I upgrade my s/c to a higher psi unit)

I've got a TTA tach waiting to go in with my ProCharger, I just had no clue how the heck to get it working.

If you could email me specifics alexclaytor@netscape.net you would be the man:hail:

Or if you would like to post the specifics here for every that's fine too.

I understand swapping over the tach board and motor from my V8 cluster but I'm lost on using guts from a turbo grand am cluster. Do you have P/N's or anything for me to buy for this???? TTA's are 3 Bar right? So to work with a 2 Bar I use the Turbo Grand Am stuff like you did right? But to use a 3 Bar it should be fine right?

I ask because I'll be 2 Bar for about a year then I'll be going to a 3 Bar...

Thanks!!!

I sent you an e-mail.


btw you do have the whole cluster right? other wise it will need a bit more work. since the TTA cluster has the boost motor and circuit board spots molded into it.
