whats up guy's i got my SS TC about 4 months ago, iv noticed my SS came with a different boost gauge mines in kPa's or w/e not in PSI wondering if n-e one had this and switched it out for a PSI one and if so how much was it

 

uhm...thats how its supposed to be in canada lol

 

really bc i saw a few here with psi

 

hey dood mine is the same, i want PSI as well, u can get it at any GM parts department and they should be able to give u a fairly cheep install price. I will get one in the future sometime, until then lol 100kpa and 120kpa in summer

 

damn haha k cool not gonna lie i didnt know that Canada was kPa that haha

 

The part is only like $58 from the US if you order online and it should be easier then pie to install. The morons at createenginedepot can't seem to find a reply button to my emails so I have had to wait to order the part. Maybe I go somewhere else and order.

 

I have the PSI gauge installed, I didn't like the kPa one. $113 CDN to my door after everything.

*throws psi party*

 

lol, i'll join the party sometime near summer. Btw, i could be wrong but I think a PSI gauge thru GM parts is just as cheep.

 

If you get it for cost, yes. I believe it was floating around $150ish for retail price when I checked a few months back. I could be wrong.

 

I just called 2 dealers and part number 25800715 is $159.25 and will take 3-5 business days.

On the CrateEngineDepot website, the part is about $58 USD with $20-30 shipping to Canada!

 

I never really saw an issue with doing the conversion in my head... But maybe I'm just better than most at doing math on the fly. 1psi = approx. 7kPa

 

Yeah I could do the conversion but I am old and have other things to worry about. I ordered the new gauge and I should have it in 3-4 days from the US. I wish the damn tire pressure monitoring system would switch into PSI also somehow!

 

Dude just order it from http://www.gmpartscheap.com/

And install it yourself. Sell the old one on ebay ...

Its like a 10 minute job and maybe 3 screws ... The airbag IS NOT in the pillar!

 

I have a psi boost gauge that ive been trying to sell on rlf its from a cobalt ss/sc i have the wirring harness as well i bought the gauge and harness for 90 and never put it in ill sell it for 60+shipping if u Canada guys are interested, im trying to save up and get my 60lbs injectors so i can finally throw my 2.8 on

 

SS/SC won't work with the TC and for $60, he can buy new!

 

Go into program mode in your dic (press both buttons on you wheel and go through new menu) and change units to english and youll get psi on tire pressure.

 

I saw an option but as for language, it is on english and still in kpa. I will try again in a few minutes becasue kpa is BS and whoever invented it should be shot Thanks

 

yeah X2, exaclty right, 3 screws in total, and it would be a simple; unplug the old, plug in the new

 

My tc is an 08 so there is a small possiblity they changed it for 09 but I wouldnt know why they would do that.

 

I think they have metric or imperial mode. I still have to try it. lol I will do it now

 

Wouldn't that setting change your trip meter to miles, your mileage to miles (lol), your fuel economy to MPG too?

 

Yes it does. I tried it yesterday and I can switch it to english but then its in mph. Stupid car. I am gonna see if the dealer can switch this for me

 

will the ss/sc gauge work on my tc?

a member on here will sell me theres. for some reason he has an extra psi one and mine is in kpa which is so stupid?

anyone know?

 

The SC PSI gauge only goes to like 20 PSI so no I would not want a SS/SC Gauge. You need something that goes to 30.
