Default POST UP SOME INTERIOR PICS FROM TURBO'D CARS!

Not sure if this is the right placr but anyways.....Just like what the title says....POST UP SOME INTERIOR PICS FROM TURBO'D CARS...I just like how cool it looks....with the gauges, turbo timer and all those electronics....especially if it clean. Creativity is a plus.

2 gauges mounted to the a pillar bar. i went for the bare bones approach. just a boost gauge tach and wideband. trying to keep it as clean as i can.

The 3 gauges in the old vent location are air fuel, EGT, and boost. The switch on the dash is used to check for CEL's and the gauge underneath that is water temp.

Dyno day!

Boost controller and eq in the glove box. EGT, boost, and oil pressure in the center vent area. PLX wideband above steering wheel. I think it turned out pretty clean.

Oh hell yeah, I gotta show this masterpiece off:

I went for a minimalist approach, no dash, door panels, etc. Notice the dynamic contrast achieved by utilising one cloth seat and one vinyl seat. I kept the cloth on the left, that's some serious feng shui action right there:



Custom guage cluster, got a programmable LCD display zip-tied to the center of the steering column support and boost/oil-pressure to either side. Again I tried to keep the milieu dynamic with the use of contrasting elements, bolted-down black-face guage on the left and zip-tied white-face guage on the right. I still don't have the fuel guage installed yet, haven't determined the proper placement necessary to maintain the harmonious flow of the guage ensemble. Also note the cheap-*** ebay fake spoon wheel, an intentionally proletariat accent designed to keep the whole from achieving too polished an appearance, gotta keep it real:




And of course the passenger accomodations, a simple metal firewall adorned with ECU, ignition controller, and wideband controller, aesthetically arranged in a fractal pattern. I would call it "clean", but since I never actually clean it, it's pretty damn filthy:




And of course the rear compartment, in keeping with my theme of simplicity, is adorned simply with a "JDM Bronze" strut bar, because I'm all JDM like that:




Forgive me if I digress, as this next shot isn't actually of the interior, but of an exterior feature that I think really ties my interior thematic elements together. This is the funky mold-like crud that grows on the roof of the car, I call it "Teppi", after my ex-wife:

I am sure the car gets the job done instead of looking all pretty and nice shifter

I heard proper feng shui significantly cuts down on lap times...any truth to that?

Any aero benefits from the "mold-like crud"? I would guess the crud kind acts like the wake vorticies some of the Evos come with... Sorry to use such technical terms, but I'm unsure of the common term for said crud.

Looks clean enough that your ex-wife could eat off it...

All in all

Man, you beat me to the punch! Mine is almost the exact same. This is the only pic I have at the moment, I will have to take more soon. Pic was before the turbo but pretty much the same as now.

Damn, I just had a local shop order my Fastline and picked it up when it came in a few days later. I love it, much better than my old B&M short shifter or the stocker. A friend of mine has one on his track car and swears by it too. You'll probably love it whenever you finally get it

I love my ricer steering wheel hand thing, it is so nice when it is 95 out and the wheel is burning hot. The ebay special lives on!!!
