vent boost gauge ideas?
 

Well since the AWE tuning vent gauge is currently backordered anyone have any ideas of where to go to get a different vent boost gauge? Or even somewhere where they do have awe vent gauges? I have seen people do vent boost gauges I just dont know where to get the vent gauge housing and that stuff. Any ideas are helpful. thanks

i just cut a piece of aluminum measured the diam. of the gauge then the inside of the vent
then painted it black it was fairly easy and i was bored so it was a plus;)

www.modshack.info sells vent gauge rings, just glue inside and hook up and your good to go...haha only wish it was that easy lol.

I put the AWE gauge package from the A3 into my TT, the only difference in the gauges is the center of the needle is black, not silver. It comes with a trim ring like the Modshack adapter but needs a 1/16th trim with a dremel/airtool/sander to make the trim ring fit the TT vent. This option saves you $100 from the price of the TT gauge/Vent adapter ring but gets you the factory matched lighting of the AWE gauge. If you are interested I have install pics of mine. You will also need to provide the "t" fitting to tap onto the vac line if you tap in @ the FPR otherwise the fitting included in the A3 install kit will work @ the DV. I bought my fitting at Pepboys for $1.99 for three.

Actually AWE has them on their web site for the TT and I just ordered it a few hours ago. I really like how it loooks like it came with the car that was the major selling point for me. Thanks for the help though guys!

Guess what no modshack vent ring, and a nice $35 autometer 30 PSI - 30 mmhg from autozone!

I got a modshack vent ring for $15 and $40 shipped fro the Revo. Dont think $55 is too bad at all. Compared with $280 on the AWE its a steal!

Ahh I just went and bought a large 2 5/8 gauge. It fills the entire vent and vent ring. Nothing else needed.

^ along with 0 airflow

I dont care about no stinkin' airflow!! Like you would get much anyways with 97% of the vent blocked. Plus the other three fronts work just fine. I have the vent sealed at the back.
