    I'm in the same boat. Gonna stay stock, got over 6 years to go on the warrenty. It's got enuff power for me.

    I might go for some boost gauge stickers on cardboard and mount it so I can be ricer etc.

    If I had the $$ and the inclination I'd do it for giggles. Too old now, need to work and max the 401k. 4 years to go!

    Looks nice !JWP6114

    Guys I get it. Well played! Just my opinion. I just don't think the gauge actually does anything for me except distract from my driving. I'm not dogging anyone who has them. To each his own.

    Take note that it's not an engine mod and then adding a gauge will not affect in any way your waranty.

    Correct, it's to "monitor" engine data like your speedo, tach, etc...

    No real link other than speedhut.com. They custom make them. Just select which one u want and go through the options, like face color, bezel, logo. Etc.

    PLX boost gauge, mounted to the top of the steering column.

    Column will move up and down but is fully extended out and can not be moved in.

    If I remember right, keep in mind this was over 2 years ago. There was a spot to upload a logo . Maybe they are not doing that anymore. You could email him and find out. Fantastic guy replaced the ballast for my gauge free of charge.

    There is a place where you can add TEXT and and choose the police style. Just write TRD

    I'm fairly certain with SpeedHut gauges, you can upload a logo file for them to use.

    Just search google for the TRD logo/image that you want to use and upload that image to the custom boost gauge that you want.

    Go at " Logo/text" --- customize

    Then choose " Enter custom text" write TRD with police and color of your choice and that's it.

    I have a question. I want to get a Speedhut Boost Gauge and Air/Fuel Ratio Gauge with a Cravenspeed Flexpod. Is there anything else I need to install the gauges?

    Has anybody put together a thread for how to properly install an AFR gauge? Or is it pretty straightforward to wire in?
