personally i like the black back with white indicators that illuminate when lit. as for color id prefer if you can change the bulbs in back .. say like a 194 bulb. maybe sell a 194 bulb condom kit of different colors. (hopefully most of you know what im talking about)
IMO i like either for it to light up red or green or white. if you want an led light i do believe they sell the 194 leds online somewhere. that way itll keep costs down since a 194 can be interchanged easily. well that is when the cluster is out.
i also would like the boost gauge to have vac/boost not only boost.
another gauge i would like is a temp gauge in fac location. i just dont trust the factory temp gauges. i would like something i can actually know what temp it is running at.

working on a couple of different versions. So far we're narrowed down to the following which will more than likely both be options:

1) electric gauge, with digital readout and also a half-circle graph. Accurate to 1% (most gauges you see on the market like autometer, hks, omori, defi, etc.. are accurate to about 5-10%). MAP sensor will be remotely mounted in the engine bay. The only thing running to the gauge cluster will be a couple of wires. This gauge is capable of reading from 0-60psi and fully programable along with dimmer, peak function and boost range settings for the half-circle graph. This will be custom made for the stock location and use stock mount points inside the gauge cluster. This is by far the best performing option and the best fitting. The colors that I know are going to be available so far for the LED's are red, blue, green, and yellow

2) Mechanical analog gauge made to fit the stock location. This will be a drop in fit for the stock location and will be a mechanical gauge, therefore, there will be a vacuum hose runnign to the gauge and a small hole will need to be made in the back of the cluster to allow the vacuum hose through.

A few things to note.

* With the use of an analog (needle) type gauge there is not enough room to have an electrical gauge with a remote sending unit. I've gone through a few different manufacturers and I've been told over and over that there's just not enough room. The only choice we have for an analog (needle) type gauge is a mechanical gauge that would require a vacuum hose to run all the way to the gauge itself. I'm not sure on the colors that will be available for these yet. I should know within a week or so.

* At this point the plan is to offer both options

Now bring on the feedback

both are fairly easy to install. MAP sensor is the pressure sensor that the electric gauge gets its signal from. Its just a sensor that you install in the engine bay, the vacuum hose goes to it, and then a wire runs from it to the gauge. That way there's no vacuum hose running all the way to the gauge, and it's also a much more accurate reading.

LOL. You lucked out not having to run a line! As baktasht said, almost any Analog gauge small enough to fit in the stock location is going to be mechanical. Running a line that far doesn't seem too fun.

Baktasht, It's nice to see you bringing another wanted product to the community.

One question. Are these gauges black faced like OEM, white faced in-case you have aftermarket EL dails, or will it be offered as both?

The digital ones are black faced only and will have various options for the backlighting. The analog ones will have a couple of different options for the face color.

I'm down for this as well. I'll hold off on getting a boost gauge from you guys.

OT: Will your exhaust mufflers ($399) connect up to an ATS Racing b-pipe without modification? If so, I'll place an order ASAP.

Our exhaust includes it's own full 3" b-pipe. It will replace your ATS b-pipe and connect directly to the downpipe. Then you can sell your ATS b-pipe
