Got my bezel pod last week and only gauges I had to fill the holes for now were an off brand A/F and Autometer Boost gauge. Figured they were better than empty holes. I have a Autometer Phantom A/F gauge on the way and trying to decide on which gauge to replace the boost yet. But was bored so I snapped a quick pic tonight.

 

i see boost in the near future for your em1

looks awesome and is a great match.. better pics plz

 

woah looks like alotta different colors to me for some reason, but I like it though....

 

The left one is a little bright, but still looks cool

 

why dont you hook it up to the IM vacum line?

No boost on the EM1 ever. As you can see, 23k miles on a clean title, almost perfectly straight, numbers matching EM1 and going to try and keep it that way. Plus I drive it about 80 miles a day commuting and would be a waste to boost it for the commute.

And once I get the new A/F gauge in I will get better pics.

Because that would be ghetto and I would call that rice if I saw it in someone else's car. I'm probably going to get a oil pressure gauge unless I come across an intake temp gauge cheap.

but then putting a boost gauge in a non-turbo car isn't "rice" too?

Didn't spend anything on them. Gauges came out of a turbo car that is no longer with us. Like I said, they were just to fill the holes. Boost gauge will be coming out soon.

 

boot gauge, no boost.

if you want to fill the holes, get oil pressure or something.

And if I would have had an oil pressure gauge handy I would have. You guys act like I went out and bought this boost gauge. It was sitting on the shelf collecting dust so now it is installed to fill a hole untill I get another gauge to replace it.

 

hot damn that's a nice setup of lights...

 

and you wouldn't have to keep repeating yourself if people weren't so stupid and could read what you said...anyways... my friend has this cluster too, looks good

 

sell me the boost gauge then

and don't waste your money on an A/F gauge. get a water temp and oil pressure...you need both since the car didn't come with oil pressure gauges, and the factory water temp doesn't really work...

and sell me the boost gauge

you can drive around all day and barely get into boost.
what are you trying to say ? cars with clean titles dont get turbo'd?
plently of people turbo new cars that are more expensive then your si.

And good for those people. I don't know enough about turbo's right now to want to tackle it. All I know is that almost every turbo setup I've seen needs constant tuning and most of them grenade after time. And if I can drive around all day without getting into boost then why boost it? Its just not the thing I want to do to the car. To me it is worth a lot more to a buyer, and to insurance, without boost.

I know a lot of people will disagree but with it having no turbo I don't have to worry about it getting me to work every day, running the kids around, and just taking care of things.

You drive 80 miles a day and only have 23k miles? Hmmm doesn't add up.
