Allright so here's my boost gauge. I machined an aluminum ring with 8 holes in the TT pattern.
i wanted someting different than the usual, and something that fit the stock look more.
I think I succeeded pretty well in retaining the stock look, since nobody noticed the new gauge until I pointed it out to them.
I did this in november BTW. sorry for shitty phone pics.





Might as well show off my ipod cradle since i hven't done that and promised it a long time ago...

Thanks Man!
Come on people, 50 hits! Can I get some more feedback?

If anyone is interested in the Ipod dock, I'm going to replace my radio soon, so the Ipod interface won't work in my car anymore.

I tested the dock with the 5th Gen(video), Nano's (all three gens), the Itouch and Iphone.
They all fit well, and don't fall out during spirited driving.
The narrow nano's just don't have enough mass to develop a significant force during acceleration,
the other ones fit snugly between the foam pads.
The interface is the peripheral (Brand) Ipod adapter. It hooks up to the CD changer connection.
The Ipod is controllable through the radio AND the ipod itself. Sound quality is great (direct signal).
If anyone is interested, PM me.

I got the interface online at crutchfield.
the cradle I made out of a phone holder and an Ipod Universal dock (and some delrin plastic and epoxy)
