well ive been installing stuff like this for years so it was pretty easy for me, took like 45min total, you need a hole saw kit to cut the hole cause there is very little room to work with. you will also need an airsaw or some kind to notch out the backside to make room for the depth of the gauge. other than than its pretty strait forward. the consol pops apart easily with two hidden screws at the bottom of the bezel that must be removed before you pop the peice out. on a 1-10 i would say a 4 difficulty level.

uuhhh i just got on my ride for the first time and it hiting 20psi+ then tapering to 17 -18 psi !!! the car is bone stock except for modded airbox and no 2nd cat. i though they were only supposed to hit 15-16 psi max in stock form. WTF??

OK after getting on it a few more times it spikes to around 14-15 then tapers down to 12 or so in first and 2nd then everytime i hit 3rd it spikes to 20 psi then back down to 15-16 psi, Is this spike normal on the ms3 when its stock???

I do believe a "how to" is in order.
