Jb4 fuel boost gauge

So I activated this setting on my car but

Quick question how do I know how much boost I'm running with the fuel gauge

Anybody know

How many psi am I running if it goes half way or a bit more than half way etc.....

Or any body have any idea how would that gauge work in psi numbers

Yeah...each tick is 1 PSI...so when it hits half you have hit 12 PSI. It's really hard to see peak boost as it moves quick. It's kind of a general thing. When you go WOT on Map 5 for example you should she it go several ticks above half. You need to do a log to really see peak boost.

I'm noticing that mine doesn't work

It won't stay on

When I turn off my car and turn it back on

The setting goes back to 0
on menu 2 for fuel boost gauge so I guess it won't work for my car ?

Max (full tank) is your boost safety settings. Normally 18psi on F series N55.

I believe it is menu 4...you have to count the tach moves...first is 0. When you go up 4 hit the BC again and move the speedo up 1. That should do it. The first time I did mine I only went to menu 3 and it did not work so I went over the procedure again.

Sorry..your right. I was recently turning that on and off as well as fuel gauge. Should have checked n54 tech again before posting. Have you tried posting on n54 tech or email Jon@bms.com. It should work for you as well.
