    That stinks. Maybe return the flex pod instead! There are tons of brackets out there.

    FYI: If you are in a hurry, don't order from Speedhut. They're taking forever making mine!

    Thinking of analog instead of digital. I was looking at the ones you are getting from speedhut but don't want to wait. I'm not to impressed with the flex pod so I'll be looking for something different for mounting. Leaning towards these Air fuel ratio and boost http://www.innovatemotorsports.com/products/MTXA.php

    I looked at those originally. When I started looking for gauges, analog was my first requirement. I had a turbocharged 1994 Civic years ago that had an Autometer digital AFR gauge. That gauge was pretty annoying with the constant light show and I'm not interested that again.

    The main reason I went with Speedhut was their boost gauge. I wanted a gauge that tops out at 10psi and also has vacuum. Speedhut was the only one I found. Our chargers, even with the 2.85" pulley will only ever make ~8psi of boost. That extra real estate in the right side of the 15psi/20psi gauge will never be used. It's not an issue, I'm just picky about certain details.

    I just wish Speedhut were a little quicker to make the gauges. I'm pretty sure if you went without custom graphics the process would be quicker.

    Can you post a picture of this as I am a bit confused.

    I would expect the front bezel to not pass-through the mount.

    Thanks

    2.85" pulley here. It was the equivalent of getting supercharged again for me. Truck didn't feel much faster with the stock pulley at my elevation ( I peaked at 3psi at a mile above sea level). Put the smaller pulley on and it made all the difference in the world for me. I can now get 6 lbs at a mile up here and when I go to lower elevations the truck rips. Just do it.

    Not the best photos. I've already boxed everything up. Basically the bezel overlaps the mounting holes on the flex pod.

    I'll be returning the flex pod and the gauge. I like the innovate gauges and ordered analog instead. So I'm guessing I'll run into the same problem with the flex pod. Still trying to decide on mounting options.

    I ordered from them as well. Mine says the art guys have it or something like that. No custom graphics or anything. Mine were very similar to what you ordered minus the Toyota logo IIRC.

    On a side note, my SC has been sitting on a FedEx delivery truck at their local hub since Saturday morning, but since it was ground, no delivery. I asked Tim last week to have it held at my local FedEx Office so I could stop by and pick it up after work. Still says "out for delivery" since Saturday. Such a tease, FedEx is.

    My package is estimated by FedEx to arrive on Tuesday. I messaged @TIM.TRDSparks to see if he can have it held at a FedEx location as well. Generally I can do it myself, but whichever shipping product they used does not allow the recipient to make changes. It will be more convenient for me to be able to pick it up at a FedEx location vs. trying to be home at whatever arbitrary time FedEx decides to show up needing my signature.

    Same here. My local FedEx office is in the next neighborhood over, so it is no big deal for me to go pick up. The hub, on the other hand, is a bit of a drive. FedEx usually runs through my neighborhood in the early afternoon, but knowing my luck, it would show up while I am not there. Mine is still showing "on vehicle for delivery" as of 5:39am. I have been sick all weekend so I am leaving at lunch and will stop by to see if it has arrived yet.

    When I stopped off at FedEx the lady asked what I needed and I said a pickup. She asked what size the box was and I said "about 90 lbs, says magnuson on it". She gave me a look and said "oh, so you are the one picking up that heavy ass supercharger" I lol'd
