I have a few kits

jahmed78 · 01-03-2011, 04:13 AM

does hot and cold air still come through the vent with the boost gauge in it? if so, can u still point it to ur face? does it affect the gauge?

Nice looks good ... I had to custom make mine. Bloody steering wheel is on the wrong side.

BobS · 01-03-2011, 07:51 AM

Looks good, I plan on getting one in that location as well.

I like the boost gauge's location, a bit easier to see than looking through the steering wheel (and down) with the V5...probably the only complaint I have for a free boost gauge though

MusclezMarinara · 01-03-2011, 02:47 PM

I dont like the new Fuel / boost gauge its not very accurate if you have to "guestimate"

but its a nice feature on the JB4 and V5

sunnydshine · 01-03-2011, 06:50 PM

ugly

You don't have to guesstimate.....If you can tell how much gas you have left in your tank, then you should be able to tell the boost reading via the gas gauge.....It goes from 0-20 lbs, and each tick mark is 1 lb.

Besides, the V5 samples from CANbus, so it's actually MORE accurate than the aftermarket boost gauges.........So I've heard/read.

not my taste...

a bit gaudy and a huge red flag at the dealers. but great work w/the harness and install.
