Now I just have to get the the boost gauge I want to put inside it.

I think that backwards of how everyone else did thiers. I've had my gauge for a few months now in the garage. I'll install it when it gets warmer hur (that's prolly gonna be next week).

I don't see it on their site. Where do I order? Link please.

Never mind, I went back into the thread and found a link and ordered one. I want a gauge that matches my stock gauges. Help me choose the right gauge. I would be very grateful to have a link to the best gauge at the best price. I don't want to spend hours researching, so save me the time and lead me to the gauge, please.

hey man go to aeroforcetech.com. they make really great OBD2 guages. all u have to do is drop the wire down, plug it into your obd2 port and u have a boost guage and anythign else. its like a dash hawk in a 52 mm guage. plus you have the option to have red and black lcd screen, blue warning lights. thats what im getting.

Thanks, I just went there and I want one now. Red/Black read out with black background and silver bevel.

 

[Moultese]

How much are they? That site is very ******* confusing, and I can't seem to find where to check prices or purchase the gauge. Their little demo video in the SRT-4 was very impressive though.


edit: Never mind, found the tab at the side.


edit x2: No way I'm paying $400 for a boost gauge, lol. That's a little out of my price range right now. Too bad, it's a neat little product.

 

[08cosmic3]

I think you have to go through a dealer. They list them. I don't have the money yet to purchase, so I'll hang back and hopefully other members will find the best price and post it here. Thanks

I got my vent pod today... Wow, install is easy and only took 15 mins!!!! Actually, removing the OEM vent and installing this one, only takes 3 mins if that long. Whats awesome is that there is no need for cutting or drilling.
Here are a few pics:

Install is easy, just pull out your OEM vent (it simple slides out with some force, but not brute force), the turn the inner ring clockwise and slide out...

You have to remove the panel that runs underneath and around the steering wheel.

Unhook the hood release cable, slide out the handle (you need to use a flat head screwdriver and wedge it between the dash and handle to depress the locking mechanism), and remove the screw behind it, then the panel just pulls out; its held be clips.
Route your wires.

And install your gauge into the vent pod.

Here are some final pics.

Definitely better than having the gauge on the steering column.

Was there a chip or some other sort of blem? I was very careful to wrap them in bubble-pak to try and avoid something like that. Was the package damaged at all?
My apologies for any troubles!

I ordered one today. Are they still in stock?

 

[Moultese]

Ah ha! So you have to turn the inner ring. I worked at it for like 2 minutes and was like "well what the eff?" It's like freezing rain outside so I think I'll just put it in tomorrow. Actually, I'll just wait until I have a gauge.

its no bigger than a rock chip but no worries.

im curious to the ones installed if they have any problems with glare?

 

[Elbows-High]

My donor car's driver never reported any glare issues. If you guys encounter this, please let me know.

cosmic, Donny should still have some in stock.

I'll let you know today when I leave to go home from work...

Driving into work this morning was AWESOME!!!! I love this product!!

Awe man, this thing is sweet!!!! I can see my dash now. It looks so uncluttered!!!!

I highly recommend this product!! Quality is AAA and the install can't get any easier, especially if you already have a boost gauge installed!!

Thanks Elbow-High for this super awesome product!!!! WAHOO!!!! I'm excited about my car again!!! (I wonder how long it will last this time...)
