    Boost gauges?

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    No podi love for C5? What are people using?

    I'm trying to put together pods for my wife's allroad and my rs6.

    Not interested in fabricating/customizing much, I'd prefer to just install them.

    Ideas?

    I installed it where cupholer above radio used to be, looks pretty much like it belongs there from factory, shows much more just boost.

    That's definitely cool, but for $400? Nah, I'd rather put that money somewhere else. Besides I'm partial to the stepper motor gauges. It's easier to acquire the gauge face from my peripheral vision than it is to try and pick up the stealth digital one.

    Definitely a solid option though. Other thoughts?

    Those are two pretty sweet ass options, V1nny.

    Whatever happened to STE that made he PPD(performance parameters display)? I bought one like two or three Black Friday's ago for my build and it's still in a box somewhere, I think they went belly up? Hope my shit works lol.

    Hope it works and it lasts, as it looks like there will be no support or parts. Good thing if (when?) it fails, you can just pull it out and trash, as there no permanent modification done.
