    S4/S6 centre vent boost gauge install

    I got fed up with the stupid prices that were being quoted so I made my own.

        I have senn it been done before but it is not very easy from what I understood. I did look into doing this myself but I did not want to dismantle both the instrument cluster and a new gauge.
        Plus the beauty of my version allows more than one gauge but at the expense of losing other vents but if you need fresh air open a window??? I have not noticed any lack of air from my centre vents. I'm happy with the conversion.

              Again, looks awesome, but from what material is it, and is it machine-cut?

                Food grade plastic, it's called "Acetal" and yes turned on a lathe then CNC milled. Perfect match to the plastic Audi used for the vents.
