Ed: Your Digital Boost Gauge Installed (finally)
All went well. Found some great gaskets to run the line to the engine compartment. Gauge looks great on the steering wheel cowl.
Only questions I have is: What's the reading for each of the lights (if calibrated per your spec's)? I can only light up four of the LED's w/ my stock ECU/turbo, is that normal?

Re: 4 LEDs lit
Yep 4 LEDs is normal for the stock chip. It's 2 psi per LED. Stock max is 8-10 psi. That's exactly what I get when I switch APR to stock mode. If you don't plan to chip soon you might want to re-calobrate the full scale to 10 psi. 1psi/led.
With the APR stage I chip I get 7-8 LEDs at WOT, which is 16 psi or 1 bar. On a *very* rare occasion I get spikes which lite the 9th LED. I have never lit the 10th.

His boost gauge looks so hard to to but I love the way it looks...how much did everything cost you and where did you get the supplies needed?
