To reset the memory: Push and hold the button until the pointer begins to flash. Release button. Then while the pointer is still flashing (set mode) push the button and hold it to move the pointer fast or each time you push the button the pointer will move in small increments to the exact point where you want to set it. After you have the pointer where you want to set your warning level just wait about 6 seconds and the pointer will stop flashing and retain that point as your new warning level. If you pass the point you wanted to set the level at-just keep going and once it reaches the end of the scale it will begin to come back.

Got to agree with you there especially with your build, If moneies not an object look into the electronic Defi gauges http://www.defi-shop.com/product/zdcsp/zdcsp_top.html

Yes the defi gauges are the best but pro sport gauges are top quality kit for the money. And the warning you were getting was the gauge doing it's job as it was set to warn you if it over boosts. Least you knownit works. If it's the stepper motor version also very accurate too

Hiya mate,

If you press and hold the peak button, turn the ignition and keep holding the peak button down until it does its sweep, this removes the beeping altogether but still allows the flashing to warn.

I had to do this with the AFR gauge as on declaration the gauge beeped all the time

Hope that helps.

I was told yesterday by a experienced mapper that the pro sport's are good gauges and the boost gauge is more accurate than the defi are
