Beaver Hot Summer Nights this Saturday. Technically 3-9 I think, but cars will come and go sun up to midnight. I don't know if i'll have the bike, Coby, or my girls Dad's Trans Am.. Anyone anywhere near the Pittsburgh area should go. It's always HUGE!

LC-1 is a very easy install, just follow the directions, shouldnt take you long at all

like I said its not bad at all.

If you mount it close enough to the firwall you have plenty of wire to run back into the cabin

all three will really depend on the specs of each but 20A to 30A should just fine, I always used a 20A or 15A when doing add a fuse for the LC-1

hey boosted maybe youd know. if i were to split the 0-5v output wire from the lc-1 into two so i could run one to the gauge and one for loggin would that mess with anything?

In theory nope. I cant tell you for sure unless you try it, you will know right away though if the gauge starts readin wierd when hooked up. In theory it should not effect anything, the voltage should be the same in both wires which means the signal should stay the same

the boost gauge is great...works awesome for me...as for power tap the sunroof fuse with an add a fuse and power everything but your lc-1 off that...for the lc-1 i recommend a different fuse

ok..well i was also wondering would a bigger gauge wire than the lc-1 wire gauge affect it? i couldnt find wire that small

that wont be an issue either, i mean you dont want to make a huge leap in gauge but you wont have any problems

ok ill have to try that...do the make little splices that i can use to connect the wire or should i do it the old fashioned way and just strip a section and connect it that way?
