Ditching boost gauge for good

[Pat]

I always thought the idea of a boost gauge was great and it was sorta cool, but the way I mounted it and had it set up was HELLY ghetto, so I am ridding myself of it. I called C1 and I am getting it professionally uninstalled. I think I will wait until I get enough money to get it properly done on the a pillar, no buzzing and it has to be an OMORI

what's with this buzzing boost gauge? it must be just with the electronic ones. that's wierd.

[Evan@42draftdesigns]

what kind of boost gauge did you use?

[Pat]

It was a VDO black 15psi gauge with no vacuum boost. It was ghetto but it served it's purpose, I shoudl have went all the way and got it mounted properly and stuff. Maybe next time.

I have been using vdo gauges for years, and now sell them. I have never had any buzzing noises

I have used the 0-15 and -30to25 intensively....

If you want to clean it up a bit you can get the Autometer A-pillar pod with one or two gauges. Although with the curtain airbags, you won't be screwing it in so you'll have to find another way to fasten it to the pillar.

[Evan@42draftdesigns]

We will be coming out with an extremely professional and extremely clean A pillar mounting soltion is the near future....

Likewise, don't give up on your boost gauge yet

Wow this is an old post... If you're still looking go to 42draftdesigns.com, you can pick up an upholstered A pillar pod that requires no drilling etc. Easy to install, looks good and not a bad price. Or, I'd recommend one of their 3 gauge solution packages, it'll fit just above you single DIN head unit...looks better and you won't have to deal with your airbag. Got one from them about 2 weeks ago, price was right on target and they're great people to deal with...
