**Question about boost gauge...**

JBiddy · 12-23-2009, 04:18 PM

whats up guys, first of all wanna wish everyone a merry christmas!
ok am really in the market for a boost gauge, i want something that goes on the drivers side vent, but i do not want a digital one.
i looked at the ecs, but it seems that they only make it for the center vent.

what other options do we have for our cars?
BTW i have an e92 335i

thanks

i know i really wanted it! BUT it looks like a pain in the ass to install.....

the ecs center vent one is so easy to install, i installed it with ease for a friend, and wires usually scare me.

I was watching the diy video and it says u have to take the radio off, drill idk lol

Did you get ur new whip yet???

RevC · 12-23-2009, 11:19 PM

who me? no.

no you can tap electrical anywhere, these wires run all through the car, the radio is the second easiest and that way it is wired to the dim function as well.

thanks brother

Bogo Shipyo · 12-24-2009, 10:09 AM

no need to tap the wires to anything , just go to autozone and get the Tap-a-fuse and extend the wire to the fuse box.
a. its removable
b. clean without cutting splicing to anything

The DIY video can be confusing but its pretty simple to install.
