where does everyone mount their guages....like boost and such....i have one and i want ideas to where the best place to place this cool lookin gadget....pics if u can..thanks

 

 

nice....hows the visibility from the outside?....i want something that u cant really tell...as is the previous owner mounted it on the A pillar...which i think is just obvious........my goal is to make this a sleeper

 

if you want it to be a sleeper you can mount gauges under an aftermarket radio. this is not my car, its a pic i saved a while ago.

 

thats why I placed it where I did. It was kinda hidden behind the black mirror triangle. Visible still but not as obvious as an A pillar pod.

 

dont like that idea for 2 reasons.....1.hard to see and 2.hard to see...i do keep a keen eye on the boost everytime i drive now....i found out i save insane amounts of fuel if i keep the pressure at -10mmHg...so i def want it to be in someplace where i'll look often...as is i have the headunit layout memorized..so dont need to look to change stations/tracks....im thinking how bout on the stock guage itself?.....the inside the tachometer right under neath "4" and above the needle pivot point?

 

are there any important circutry back there ?....

 

MY boost gauge is on the Steering Pillar. That's Behind the Steeing wheel for the slow kids

I'm assuming that's a custom job? Got pics? I know the FD has one on the steering column but the only other one I have seen on a FC was in the picture of the border mickey mouse dash cover with the pod on the column also.

 

I didn't like the A-piller look either, I am more of an out of sight out of mind type person...

This is my current setup:

This new setup I did was easier to read, and I put in the LED's for code checking.. Incase it happens on the road. I liked the way it worked out.

My first setup was pretty similar:





(NOTE: The two gagues are in a test mode, not pegging out and blowing up my motor =P )

But as you can see, having the gauges down that low was pretty annoying to read...

I'll eventualy have a writeup on this.. I took pictures on what I did but just havent had the time to make a writeup yet...One day....

 

A-pillar for boost and water temp, Wideband is going below stereo
