Hehe I like this thread.

Any reason why you feel the need for a boost gauge though? It's a supercharger so it's not like you'll be adjusting the boost/tuning the car much. It's mounted too low to actually monitor so I'd assume its purpose would be for tuning on-the-fly by a passenger.

Ohio, I like what you have done but I wanted to add this vid just for fun.

Too funny.

That was very well done.

Ohio, I think the gauge placement looks cool. It's not "ricer" to have a boost gauge because you have an SC in your car. It's quite appropriate to have the gauge. Plus you're not trying to "show off" your gauge by placing it where another driver can see it and lighting it up with LED's. I think the location you have it in is very Porsche-esk (sp?).

Hi,

'cept that Porsche never installed a Boost gauge out of the Driver's line of sight. As mentioned, a boost gauge on a S/C is just a toy. Probably couldn't find an appropriate SC badge for the rear deck, so wanted to announce it to the world by adding the gauge (or he had an extra $0.52 burning a hole in his pocket) - RICER. IMHO, of course...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99

I appreciate all the opinions and took them to heart. I went to Autozone and bought a bottle of Rice Be Gone. I was in a hurry and didnt read the directions because of the several projets going on at the time, you know making a big wing out of 2x4's, neon under the car and the dragon graphic for the hood. Anyway, in my rush I didnt realize I was supposed to wear gloves and some spilled on my hands. Next thing you know not only did my ricer boost gauge disappear so did my personality. Slowly through out the day I was transformed in to a grumpy old man that thought he knew everything. It was bad, I yelled at those damn kids in the neighborhood with thier loud music. One kids ball even rolled into my damn driveway, little brat! My wife realized what was happening and sprayed me with Ass Be Gone now Im back to normal. Moral of the story, if you have an extra $2.99 burning a hole in your pocket give it a try.
