Where Do You Mount Your Boost Gauges? (m35)

[Bmx537]

Just plumbed up and wired in a boost gauge so I could actually see what's going on. At the moment it's just squeezed into the top glove box.

Just wanting to see where everyone else has mounted theirs!

I like hiding them where the dvd-rom is (not a big fan of gadgets all over the dash but each to their own)

That a lot of gauges mate!! What are they all running?

Wow.

Considering most of those are invisible when driving that layout is mental.

And it's mental.

Each to their own.

[Ben C34]

How the f**k are they visible to the driver at full throttle?

you look at your gauges the whole time when at wot? i only ever look when i feel like something is wrong.

gauges are tuning tools or used as a tool on the track to check temps or pressure.

oh look 20psi.... oh wow it's still 20psi years later...

[Ben C34]

Do you even. Gauge.

I should have said not my car, just liked the pic.

Not the safest to be looking at your glovebox area when driving.

You'd want your gauges front and centre in a race car but I like the sleeper look and just open the lid for test and tune on a back road in a street car.

That gauge set up pictured above is in my car now, the gauges are actually quite visible, can catch them with out of the corner of your eye well enough to see whats going on.

Cant tell you oil temp/pressure accuratly when im booting it around, but can see enough thay if somethings not going right I can shut it down no worries.

Boost, trans temp, and everything on the HKSOB link are well within normal viewing range.

Plus its sleeper as f**k and I enjoy it.

Should mention theres another boost gauge on the dash drivers side next to the A Pillar...

Boost gauges errywhere. 3 in total when the OB link is on.
