Default My New Custom Boost Gauge ***Teasezzrrrr***

California = Horrible for modded cars.
Turbo Car = Needs Gauges to monitor your power.

California + Turbo Car = Tickets/Refs. =(

This is what I was able to get a hold of for myself to keep my car interior stock and low key as possible. I have a BLITZ Boost Gauge in my airvent, Greddy Boost Controller in my dash, and also a Tein EDFC in my dash recently. All the flashy gauges and controllers are removed from my interior and switched back to stock/hidden appearance.

And here are some pictures of my new "boost gauge"



and it will be mounted here.


Each Blue LED will read 1psi on boost. Any White LED below will read 4psi of Vacuum. I have 5psi spacers in White LEDS as well. This all hooks up to a electronic pressure sensor that will work similar to any new electronic boost gauge/controller.

I will post a video when its installed.

Can I get more info on your lights including high beams? You can Pm me if you don't want to clog your thread.
That is the exact look I'm looking for in my car.

^ Wish states would just get over there selves. Its freedom of expression, as long as the car is NOT unsafe it should be legal. Untill then well have to just keep "Breaking the Law"
