Integrated Boost Gauge

WOPALX · 08-27-2009, 08:13 PM

I received a package today with the 1st 335 RHD vent gauge in the country.

They say patience is a virtue, I first started this process 12 months ago when I sent a RHD vent to the manufacturer in the USA so he could develop a RHD version. So 12 months and 27 days later the new toy arrived

Car is in the shop at the moment for some repairs but I went past this morning and removed the trim so I could see how it would look. Must say I am 100% happy with the quality of the item & it's OEM look.

I'm pretty sure that one of the members here will shortly be a local dealer which is a great thing.

Will post more pics once it's fully installed next week but here is a teaser.

Got my car back this afternoon and suffice to say I could not wait until the weekend to install it.

Installation took about 45mins, all the necessary items were in the kit and apart from needing a couple of extra cable ties I must say the supplier has excelled in putting all the stuff needed into the kit.

Installation was slightly different for RHD and I will document the differences when I install another users gauge, maybe on the weekend depending on his movements.

In the main I ran the boost tube under the dash to the passenger side and then out the firewall so it came out behind the ecu box. Despite fears the tubing would be too short there was plenty when routing it that way.

Calibration was dead easy and first test drive showed it to work very well.

Only took a quick iPhone pic so will get better pictures over the weekend and post them then.

Well done to Rick for a sterling product for us RHD guy's.

Pics from today on the way to work.

Sorry none under boost as I like to try and keep 2 hands on the wheel where possible.
