yep, its got a button... its the little thing next to the first bargraph square

A press of the button will recall your peak boost(since last press)

You hold down the button for 2 seconds to get into the menu, and then cycle through all the options for configuring the display, etc.

Very nice looking piece!

You mentioned a need for a relay? Does your button just send an instantaneous signal out. What type of signal (contacts) into the jb3 is required to switch the maps? How would you know which map your using without looking at the max boost levels?

Just curious?

Ah, thanks Rick, I never noticed that button before.

No relay required for the jb3, I was just saying that you could simulate a physical switch by using a relay, and technically switch ANYTHING.

My gauge will have a small pigtail harness, which will attach via 2 wires to the jb3's map switch input.

There is an on screen mode for selecting maps 1-4, so its pretty obvious which is selected, it reads out on the screen.

All this will be explained in detail with photos and video soon.

This sounds great.

Can't wait to get mine

Rix, the whole setup sounds incredible. I think you really raised the bar here. How nice will it be to be able to adjust the tune from the cabin and it look spectacular for those of us that care a great deal about that!

I'm sorry if this question was already answered, what does the install look like? I read about a plug and play harness, does this also get boost info? Or is there another place I must tap into, or route vacuum tubes to?

Here is the paraphrased version:

1. Pop out your vent, unclipe the insides and clip in my electronics.
2. Plug the power harness in
3. Poke the vacuum line through the firewall at the extra opening right under the steering column
3. Plug in the vacuum lines using included T between your DV's.

I can do the whole process in about 8 minutes, but it would probably take a first timer 30-40 minutes just to get familiar with it.
