This has been in development with a team of engineers and designers for over 3 months... and now its time to announce the product, as I am only moments away from ordering the first production batch! (which takes only 4-6 weeks to be made!)

I was looking for a way to integrate a boost gauge into the 335 interior with the following goals.

- No cutting, no perminent modifications.
- Plug and play harness
- CUSTOM firmware specifically for 335 and custom dimmer circuit
- Discreet, Hidden, and INVISIBLE TO SOMEONE NOT LOOKING FOR IT
- Not a "round peg in a square hole"
- protected from condensation.


$399 for new customers

$299 for existing users of my pod and kit (will re-use your old wiring&tubing)
If you are a previous customer, please PM me for discount instructions!

Or contact me here:

Is there still a way to direct the air or just strait?

just straight, because I didnt want to have to hack up the internals, since the current design allows for no cutting, and complete reversablility.

EDIT: actually, its not straight, its slightly towards the driver, because the molded protective foam rubber on the insde that re-directs airflow away from the gauge and protects from heat/cold/condensation.

Rix that looks absolutely fantastic! I like the integrated look so much better on this design and I am very much looking forward this upgrade soon!

On a side note, can we purchase another vent so we would still have the vent control and do whatever hack was needed to the spare unit?

[RiXst3r]

I will only have 50 units available in the first batch, and will be offering a large discount to people that bought my pod.

[flukey]

Put me at the top of the list! (PS. I also bought your previous POD)

This looks fantastic!

Great job RiX!

Thanks!

the control to open and close the vent still works, but you can give that a try if you want, it would probably be possible... I am just not looking to have to buy OEM parts.

yeah in the winter time if you have heat going into the vent would it mess up the guage especially when u have it turn to hot? How much of a rebate for the original ipod and guage OP's like myself?? #6 on your original list!!!

I plan to create a product for the 135 after I get these rolling out the door.

Its fully insulated with custom foam rubber.

I am looking to do a very large discount for current customers.

The 135i bunch will kill for these!!!

[Spool]

That looks great...



Now someone just needs to get the software for the iDrive that'll display boost, water temp, EGT, A/F...etc like on the Skyline GTR

Find me a process to flash the iDrive, the source for the iDrive software, a development environment, and the applicable compiler then I'll get right on it....

however, in the meantime RiX's new boost gauge is perfect!
