[Tommio RS]

Hey there! I finally installed my boost gauge in my car. I thought that im a user on the boards i would share some pictures of the final product.







If you like to see more pics of the finally product hit up the Tommio_Bucket gallery on Photobucket.

Aswell if you have any question of how installed everything just ask and I will glad to tell.

nice

kinda awkward to look down there?

but mine is on my pillar with no cover, and some would think that it's ugly

yours looks pretty clean

funnily, I put mine in over 2 years ago but never got around to wiring the spark

does yours illuminate? if so where did you wire it to?


PS how is the Peg? Skeeters a problem yet? Summer is here now, but the rockies are still convered in snow

Summer is just happening here. Finally getting some temp into the 20s!! WHOOT

As for the wiring. I used my moded radio harness to give it power. So Ground wire and 12v+ wires. You can very easily find the radio wiring diagrams.

Yes it is kinda crappy that you have to look down, but i was not after always looking at it. I wanted to make a gauge setup that looks nice and as stock as humanly possiable.

looks pretty clean mine is on my column too i like that look cuz it sits right in the mid of my speedometer so i can be looking at both at once. but yours looks alot cleaner for sure
good work

Awesome job! I wanted to do something similar except I wanted the guage to be digital. It is perfect down there. It is not like you need to stare at it all day. As long as you can look over at it sometimes to make sure things are fine your good!

If you want to make it a little more visible you can move the radio down and put the gauge on top. Just be sure you can load a CD with the car in park, I know it will fit with the manual but not sure about the auto.

Here's mine with the wide band down there (my boost gauge is built into the cluster). At some point I think I will build something that looks a little more factory and add a second gauge, but this works good for now.
