I like the boost gauge, but its 'aviation' look is a bit out of character alongside the plastic walnut effect! It does look like a good location for it if it is tidied up a little and perhaps has the face ring painted black to blend in a bit more.
What turbo is fitted to it?
I guess this one isn't going to be altered very much?

This one just has an 18t on it so just on 300bhp, as for the boost gauge, I was fed up of looking at small ones, so I thought a Spitfire one would be a bit clearer, I have two in the other one  |

Yes, that's the way it came, so I'll make my own once the weather gets better. |

Well, I couldn't leave it alone, even though it's my daily. I improved the RIP over engine pipe, clamped it down and fitted a strap to stop it blowing appart.  Cobbled up a Engine torque damper using a 850 Tailgate strut.  Acquired a smashed front splitter, so repaired it and gave it a cote of paint.   and this weekend I'm fitting a co2 spray bar ready for it's next dyno run in a couple of weeks.     Today I just need to sort out the wiring. |

Awesome cars, even better with Nitrous in it hah Yep, all it needs for N2O is a different bottle, 1 more solenoid and a fogger jet, so about an hour's work Today I finished off the wiring, so tomorrow I'll get the bottle filled.    |

Charge cooler all working as it should, I had to swap the Kawasaki rad for a Corsa one. The silver tape is to stop the ignition leads from interfering with my temperature sensors.   |
