Wanted: Pics of boost gauges

[nicklght]

Hey everyone just bought a boost gauge, oil temp and oil pressure gauges!http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI....m=R8&satitle=110045631997%09&category0=&fvi=1Was wondering if anyone on here had pics of there fitted gauges?

I was thinking about fitting them to a triple pod on the pillar and trying to cover it with the same material as what comes standard on the car! Has anyone got any better options? Cheers everyone all your comments are welcome ​

Of course you can use a triple pod, not really my cup of tea. I have a single gauge; boost, fitted in the drivers side airvent. made from a small tub of body filler and sprayed.

Has any one found a gauge that matches the dials on an s3 at all?
how easy is it to fit into a vent etc.

Cheers

Needles are slightly different to standard on mine, but matches with the dial rings nicely.

the one I have lights up all red like the dash does looks perfect. Ive got it ropely mounted on the a-pillar as its not a permanent fixture.

Which is that Chris??

 

[ChriS3]

It's an Apexi AVC-R, part of the boost controller system. Has a few different display options.

Wouldnt be any good with a K04 would it???

It would work with a K04, but you might have to get it custom mapped as it by-passes the N75 valve. I've never been a fan of pillar mounts, and not a huge fan of the vent mounts either. The box works well where it is but I think I need to find it a home in the dash somewhere.
