I like that setup - reminds me of the older Porsches.

Did anyone happen to mention the 5one5 triple pod dohickey that replaces the warning lights? That would be pretty easy to make if you didn't want it removeable..... and had to recover your dash.... nevermind... it would be a PITA

Yea, but I like having a clock and warning lights just in case. They saved me once already when I blew a heater hose.

The other vents all still work, so you can still get some air onto you. Besides, I won't be driving it in the winter any more, and I usually use the defrost then anyway (most times actually, I don't usually like it blowing right at me), and I don't have AC, so it's not much of an issue for me anyway.

Glove box fuel pressure

Ran out of non intrusive places to mount more gauges and I needed one other essential.

I figured since most of the time the limits of the fuel pump will be explored will be during tuning, that the glove box would be open anyways (note Haltech com cable routed through the glove box) so its a viable spot.

Don't think I've seen one in there before so figured I'd post it up

I know a guy who installed the triple pod from 5one5 and moved his idiot cluster to under the stereo.

A roll cage shouldn't be on a street car unless you plan on driving around with a helmut on all day everyday.

Here is the rough copy of mine from a few weeks ago, I have done quite a bit of finishing work to square up the edges and any imperfections. I'm currently making a mold of this so I can reproduce copies in both FG and GF, pm me if your interested in a copy.

I put the boost gauge in the a pillar, the AFR monitor is where the idiot lights used to be and I will be moving the boost controller into the center panel.




I am adding some waring light LED's that will sit right beneath the gauges like this:

Here are mine.

I NEED to see more steering column gauge mounts because I am considering moving my AEM wideband there and putting a ProSport Oil temp gauge in its old location.

Just not sure yet....
