No, no.. you need to buy a 911 for that "luxury"

The Boxster is a "cheap" Porcshe

actually.....

I am working on a oil temp & oil pressure gauge set that will fit in one of the cubbys below the radio.....vdo all the way.

But I need to get my car back from the dang shop to do sizing for a faceplate. I was thinking of fabbing it out of MDF painted black, as I have a nice woodowrking shop in my garage.

the engine already has the ports for the sensors to screw in. It would be easy to add a voltage gauge as well, I bet you could fit 3- 2 1/16" gauges in the cubby.

I smell a kit in the making......

would there be any interest in a gauge kit for the boxster?????

it would include the gauges, senders, faceplate and required wires.

I really have a hard time not having oil temp and pressure in my car. You need to know when things are hot enough to hit the fun pedal.
