finally...my boost gauge setup is done.

was meant to use my iphone 2G, but it died on me, so i ended up buying a cheap iPod touch. it was jailbreaked, but only 2.2.1...so i updated it to 3.0 but probably not going to jb it again since this will mainly my boost gauge.

How much did the rear diff heatsink set you back?? It looks sweet is it bolt on or does the rear diff cover have to be changed out? Also will it fit the c320?

Can't even tell the dent on your hood.. Car looks sweet

heat sink was $80-90 from dealership. adapter was $120-130 bought by relative for me from Taiwan.

don't know if you can use it on smaller diff on the rest of the w203.

FrankW

update: finally received my strut tool. driver side strut nut retainer was indeed very loose.

frank first of all i just want to say that i don't think there is anyone with more posts than you.haha idk how you get that many. second, droid has this cool ap that i just downloaded called "fastest droid" that is CRAZY accurate. it tells you 0-60 time, your 1/4 mile time and your speed/top speed and lets you record it. best of all, it's free. everyone with a droid should check it out.

FrankW

thanks.

the REV however is a code-reader & multi purpose gauge. it's hook up to my OBD-II port via Kiwi-wifi module. not just a 0-60 timer.

REV also records data that you want to record (boost, coolant temp, intake temp, rpm, throttle %, fuel trim, mpg, mpg avg, etc) which is what I use to monitor IAT, CT, and boost.

it also has a track tracker which uses the G meter and GPS in the iphone that can map out the track or auto-x track you were on.

made a front plate holder using my decor tow hook. came out alright. need to replace those zipties with nut/bolts.

Xhale707

Did you get pulled over for not having a front one?? Your toe hook was pretty neat in the front.. Ur car gives me a reason to keep mine for ever =D

FrankW

nah...i got pulled over for front window tint. decided to put the plate on for the heck of it.

Xhale707

Im getting my car fully tinted 20% in a few days.. Could i ask you how much was ur tint ticket? Also was it your first one? The front plate looks cool tho 2 bad my car only came with one =/

FrankW

it was a fix-it ticket. took it off and had to pay a $15 fee. first ticket ever gotten since i started driving as a kid. lol and the cop told me i'll receive the actual ticket in mail in 2 wks....but it's been like a month now since thanksgiving.

you can go to dmv and request a new front plate if you lost yours.

FrankW

update: time to call rmeuropean and ask about the warranty on the Karlyn control arm's ball joint on the driver side.....
