Supposedly you can derive pressure from temp aswell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bellato Donating Members 2,713 Member For: 14y 4m 3d Posted 26/02/13 12:20 AM Share Posted 26/02/13 12:20 AM Just make sure that your gauges are the same size as the pod. I noticed that pod is for 52mm gauges so just make sure the gauges are the same size.Also I'm pretty sure the saas gauge pod doesn't actually clip in, it needs to be stuck down with double sided tape (unless they've changed it?) so just make sure you're happy with that. You don't want it to arrive and then hate it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
