Do you have a picture of that in the center vent? I saw one on here once, but I can't find it now.

Default Did you ever see the one where someone took out the vent and put some backing around it?

I don't know who it was, but it was someone on here. I need to do the search again. If I find it, I'll send the Pic out. If anyone else finds it, please send it out. Thanks.

Default Yeap...make long, smooth bends with the vacuum hose.

Do it right the first time and you won't have to take it apart when the boost gauge doesn't work...BTDT!

Default x-ricer has the HUD gauge, DominicanS4 has a vent gauge

he and his friend made. Can't remember the exact cost but it was cheap. Saw it in person and it looks very clean.


Here are some pics.
