Here's a picture of the custom gauges Kleemann made for me.
On the left is the Boost gauge and the right Fuel Pressure.
I'll post a clearer picture when the lighting is better.
What do ya think?

i think i hate you....

any problems looking down at those guages as opposed to having them on your pillar?

 

At first it was a little distracting and it could be very dangerous if you are not paying attention. The Pillar location didn’t work because the gauges are too deep. This location is a little more discrete.
Tim

PS
Don’t hate me because the gauges are beautiful! LOL

 

they look awesome.. good job timster!!

how come only u got those gauges.. ben and ppl never had those and they too had a kleemannized vehicle?!

 

I like to keep an eye out on the performance of my cars. Knowing the boost level and fuel pressure level can help prevent problems.
I also like to be a little different!

Guess it's time for some NOS?!

 

OMG!
NOS on a Super Charged car, these two things don't workwell together. The car would have a melt down.
(Good idea though)

Later,

Just a thought!

 

Too low - Is it hard to read - May only problem with May NAV is the position of it - With the speeds I travel at, One glance down to check where I am and 1/4 mile goes by - Question: Did they offer a higher mount option ? Anyhow - as always timster your a cut above the rest - Enjoy

 

That looks great Timster.... but don't keep your eyes down there too long. I'm not sure if I'm installing gauges but thanks for being the guinea pig.

 

Yeap the location is a little low. But with the options I have in the car it's really the only place to put additional gauges. With out a total redesign, and I wasn't interested in doing that.
They fit my needs and look good to!
Thanks for the input,
Tim

 

It looks great. I think the location is cool. My friend has a 68 camaro with guages in a similiar location. Very nice...how about a close up picture showing the boost in use.

 

I can do that but it will take some time.
I'll need to have a passanger to make it safe.
Not cool to be driving and taking pictures at the same time.
I'll post it then. I'll presume you want full boost pictures! LOL
Tim

 

Do you have any plans to see how quick the beast is now on a 1/4 mile? I know the issue now is probably more of running through the tires but would love to see what you can do. Would love to see a few guys in tricked out cameros cry!

 

I want to get to the track, but I haven't been able to.
I hopefully will get there soon.
I've already spanked a M3 and a Trans Am.
Tim

 

Very nice Timster...

 

Thanks f1vu,
Have I seen your car in the city before? Maybe near the Exploratorium?
Tim

 

Tim,

Probably not. I haven't been up there this year with the CLK55. I was at the exploratorium last summer with the ML320.

 

I just happened to see one next door to the Exploratorium last time was there. You never know!
Thanks,
Tim

 

Looks great, I like it !

I won't recommend to treat Mercedes like this, fyr

 

Just a question: why don't they put them as a command menu, just like in a R34 Vspec? It would be more readable if you could see the boost level on the screen.

 

do we really NEED that make gauges?

 

Shine,
Thanks for post the gauge picture. WOW, over load!
With all those gauges the driver cannot read them he would need a navigator.
Even F1 cars don't give that much information to to the driver.
Most of it is transmitted to the race team to desipher.
As for having the gauges in a digital format in the command screen.
That would be awesome. I asked about that before I installed my gauges. The software that would need to be added would over whelm the system
Good thought though.
Maybe some after market company will come up with an add on system.
Cheers,
Tim
