Depo Racing WA6001B 60mm Turbo Boost Vacuum Gauge BAR

The Depo Racing WA6001B 60mm Turbo Boost Vacuum Gauge is designed for drivers who want to monitor turbocharger boost and engine vacuum accurately from inside the vehicle. Its compact 60mm design, electrical pressure sender and Japanese stepper motor make it well suited to performance and modified turbocharged cars.

Designed for performance and modified vehicles, the WA6001B provides a clear -1 to 2 BAR operating range in a compact 60mm gauge. Its combination of Japanese stepper motor movement, electrical pressure sensing and bright White & Amber LED illumination makes it a practical addition to many turbocharged vehicle interiors.

Monitor Boost and Vacuum Pressure

A dedicated boost gauge gives the driver a direct view of the pressure being produced by the turbocharger.

The Depo Racing WA6001B BAR version displays both vacuum and positive boost pressure across a -1 to 2 BAR range, making it suitable for monitoring turbo behaviour during normal driving and under load.

Monitoring boost pressure can also help highlight unexpected changes in the forced-induction system, particularly on vehicles fitted with performance modifications.

Japanese Stepper Motor Movement

Depo Racing equips the WA Series gauge with a Japanese stepper motor movement.

The stepper motor controls the gauge needle electronically, providing smooth and responsive needle operation as boost pressure changes.

This makes the gauge easier to read during acceleration and when checking how the turbo system responds under different driving conditions.

White & Amber LED Backlight

The gauge uses White and Amber LED illumination, helping the display remain clear in different lighting conditions.

The dual-colour backlight also makes the WA Series gauge easier to integrate with a wide range of factory and aftermarket dashboard lighting arrangements.

Smoke Lens, Black Face and Chrome Rim

The WA6001B combines a smoke lens, black gauge face and chrome rim for a clean performance appearance.

This styling works well in standalone dashboard installations as well as multi-gauge setups using compatible mounting pods.

Electrical Sending Unit

The Depo Racing WA6001B uses an electrical sending unit rather than relying on a purely mechanical gauge connection.

The pressure signal is measured by the sender and transmitted electrically to the gauge, helping simplify the cabin-side installation.

Opening Ceremony and Needle Self-Calibration

When the gauge is powered on, it performs an opening ceremony and needle self-calibration sequence.

This startup sweep gives the gauge a modern performance appearance while allowing the needle to initialise before displaying live pressure information.

60mm Gauge with Mounting Stand Cup

With a 60mm diameter, the WA Series boost gauge is suitable for compatible 60mm gauge pods and custom dashboard installations.

Depo Racing also lists a mounting stand cup with the gauge, giving additional flexibility when positioning it inside the vehicle.

Suitable for Performance and Modified Vehicles

A boost gauge can be particularly useful on vehicles fitted with modifications such as:

• ECU remapping
• Upgraded turbochargers
• Intercooler upgrades
• Intake systems
• Performance exhaust systems
• Boost-control changes
• Other forced-induction modifications

By monitoring boost behaviour directly from the cabin, the driver can keep a closer eye on how the turbo system is operating.
