Acceptable to me. How did u get input from the manifold? Or does the gauge takes signal from ECU?

Default That does look like crap......also looks a little dangerous..

I'm not going to touch the bangup job installing that gauge but I think that it might be a dangerous thing there....

What if the airbag blows? Does it extend that far down? I think you should rethink that install

Default Looks like crap? Looks Dangerous? I will try to post a better pic this weekend... More within-->

Anyone who has seen the car, loves that Gauge, and Location! It looks absolutely MEAN! Maybe the pic I posted is misleading, it is in the very far left corner of the windshield, and pillar. I will try to take a pic of it, not so ZOOMED in. Sorry... but I am not into "Digital" boost gauges... I like the real thing, that is why I went with an AutoMeter Ultralite Gauge, The Background matches the car, and looks extremely professional. As far as install, I ran a Vacuum line over to the intake manifold, It is where the dealer also checks for Boost! (They love it!) Just to let you know the factory chip is good for about 10 lbs of boost... and levels off at higher rpm's to 9lbs. The TAP Chip can spike to as much as 18 Lbs... but generally stays at 14 - 15 lbs. Sorry not all of you like it... Like I said I will try to post a better angle so you can see where it sits, it is only a 2" gauge... so Maybe you all think it is bigger or something.
See ya
