    Turbo bits digital gauges

    Hi peeps,
    If you are looking for a compact digital boost gauge, then I've managed to get a bulk discount on these little beauties (little being the operative word)

    They're not cheap, but they're small and there is a choice of display colours - blue, green and red.
    The red looks kinda retro and I think will suit the S2 interior
    Anyway, if I get an order for 5 units, we get 10% discount. If I can get us to 10+ units, we get 15% discount.
    So, fitting kit would be:
    2 x 1/8" hose barbs = £3-52
    1 x T piece = £3-01
    1 x gauge = £116.56
    = £123.09, less 10% = £110-78
    Any takers, please PM me within 7 days.
    We'll probably be best ordering direct off the site but I think they're going to give me a special code we can use.
    Thanks!
    Alex

      Hi,
      It looks ok, but I can't help thinking I am not alone when I say I much prefer a dial, also in BAR not PSI, to see very easily at a glance... For this kind of money you can buy one from a guy in Germany who had them made to match the existing dials....
      There may be some takers, but try and find a source for decent quality matched boost gauges and you will have many takers...!

      S2 Coupe... bit easier off the line...

        I understand what you say. My take was that it would be nice to have a 'hideable' guage (just add a connector to the wiring). I personally don't want a guage cluttering up or adding to the dash which looks good as it is.
        My idea was to velcro mount the guage on the steering column top, but be able to tuck it away somewhere (?) so I could just use it for diagnostics.
        I know everyone is different, but I want my car to look completely standard, with no visible mods of any kind.

          The best way then, is to try and get the autocheck system showing boost pressure..... I thin there are people who have done this.... not too sure....
          But I understand exactly what you mean, its a shame to add stuff which clearly looks added....

            Yes the autocheck is available through 034 (Corey?) but looks even more expensive

              Yes, that is one way, but others are working on similar systems which will or might be alot cheaper....
              I don't know how to copy thread links here, so pop the below in the search function and have a look.... You'll see what I mean...
