Default Anyone know if Silroan has any gauge pods still to sell?

I've got about $125 of unexpected income coming in and I'm already thinking of ways to spend it.

Where would I get an inexpensive boost guage to fit the vent pod... with red lighting?

Thanky

Default I'm not too handy with stuff like this.

Someone on here a few weeks back someone said you could do the whole deal for about $80 which is within my budget. I have no idea about how to even approach building my own.

Email him. Last I heard he was close to having someone produce them for him.

Default That was me... bought a 52mm Omori mechanical gauge... and carved out the center vent...

Default I have a writeup on the vent mod, however - - - ->

While the misc. parts will for my mod totaled maybe $40, the boost gauge is triple that, maybe more, mine was second hand.

The vent mod was a 2 out of 10 on the difficulty meter.

The A-pillar mod will be much more expensive.

Default Think you might have them in time for the APR BBQ?

And how much do you charge for them? If you don't wanna answer either of these questions publicly... please feel free to email me.

Default They will be ready well before the BBQ.

As to price, i'm not completely sure what the price of the kit will be. It should become public very shortly.
