Wow! I had no idea that C32's ran or could handle 20psi. I'm happy with my little 6lbs. Your car looks great, maybe I will do something like you or due the apillar pod guage I have already started.

i see red x's....i want to see more pics of the setup.

the c230k i think stock boost is i think is btwn 10-15 psi???

Looks like 16 inchs of vaccum to me . Boost /pressure is on the other side of the Gauge. I like in the console setup, but would prefer black face with white numbers. And pipe lighting to the pointer. Also I use to set up the gauge or turn the gauge , so the pointer was straight up under full throttle conditions. That way I could just glance , see it straight up and know that it was within parameters . That way I didn't have to think about it , and could concentrate on my driving. Plus other people looking in at your dash or console wonder way your gauges are ***$eyed LOL Nice video

well, the stock C32's already running at 1bar=14.7 something psi Mario.

BenzoAMGpower

BenzoAMGpower

the smallest ones autometer makes... so besides boost, what other gauge do you have?

Bif powell

Do you have some sources or nudges in the right direction to do a boost guage like this. Have been thinking about this mod the last few days.

BenzoAMGpower

if your willing to come to Miami, I have a buddy who did my whole install here!!!! he custom fabbed the housing and ran all the lines. it took us about a day.

Well, I'm trying to learn, so this is a chance to learn to do something that should be fairly easy if I educate myself properly. If I lived there I might go to your guy to fix things when I muck it up, I'm going to try it myself I found another thread similarly subject'd with pics and someone said they did theirs with the vaccuum line so I'm hunting that down.

hey benzoamgpower where did you connect the boost line too? do you have any pics of the engine bay area? it looks great.

i found the 2 1/16" boost gauge. is that the size you used? what housing did you use?

Here are some instructions on how to install a boost gauge: http://www.slk32.com/pages/boostgauge1/boostgauge1.html

Hope it helps.

BenzoAMGpower

thats how we did it... we tapped the same peice of the intake!!!

BenzoAMGpower

yes, thats the size i used... and as far as the housing, we custom made it!! Its plastic that we heat bent and fitted.

white_w203

what kind of material did u use for the housing.....where can i buy a piece of plastic where i can heat and bend? interested in doing this project as well. thanx for all the help.
