Don't you have a gauge on your boost controler? Why have 2 gauges for reading the same thing? Only reason I had another gauge was because the controler is hidden under the dash.

If you wanted a more heads up one you might consider a pillar gauge.I can tell you from experience that mounting them in the center stock locations is a pain and takes many hours and days.

Well sounds like your pretty loaded up already.  Are there two more gauges that you want? Oil temp maybe? If not then I'd put iton top of the stock center gauges on the dash.

Okay, Okay I got it. What you need is 34-26-34 Blonde in the passenger seat that will hold it for you.

They don't accurately tell you anything. Especially the autometer ones. Only good for seeing if the motor's in closed or open loop mode. For tuning, you end up just looking at the O2 values on the logger for comparison. So the gauge, in the end, is just something that looks pretty. Not worth having in my opinion.

Jack at M-Spec ( sales@m-spec.net) is selling a Blitz boost gauge with the ash-tray mount included - looks like a good setup. I've dealt with Jack several times in person, on the phone, and purchased from him too, always has very reasonable prices. _________________  Best in Show - NG07 2010 - 6G74/3.5L E16Gs - 688awhp/679awtq (Race+Meth) 2011 - 6G74/3.5L 68HTAs - 740awhp/762awtq (Race+Meth) 2013 - 6G74/3.5L MTC Stage4 - 908awhp/832awtq (Race+Meth)
