No boost gauge. Newer B5's can monitor boost via a vag com cable and a laptop. No dice for you though. You'll have to install one.

Heres mine.. Center vent location. I also like the steering column location one. Check out www.ecstuning.com for either one.

well more than that i think it blocks the center info display... Ya know the part that the pixels are known to die in. In the newer a4's 99 or 00 and up i think, it would look bad.
