FI gauge options
I am looking for a good location to put in a set of 3 60mm Defi Guages (boost, fp, egt).
Can anyone here describe their setups? I would appreciate any pictures as well. Are there any vendors out there that make pillar pods that match the factory pillar well?

Heres a pic of my 3 .I have a wideband ,fuel pressure and boost.
It's not really crowded to me when I'm driving. When I first installed it I would bash my head on it leaning forward while getting in the car . You get used to it very quick after a few nice welts....

C6BOOST, I have 2 of the 60mm Defi BF series guages in my C6. They are wayyy too big in my opinion for the A pillar, but that's just me. Below are some pics of the pods I made, which are going to be wrapped in carbon fiber (to hide the imperfections), or maybe I'll just improve upon them until I'm happy. If you are willing to sacrifice your center vents and cut out the piece where your hazzards are and relocate the button, you can fit 3 in there...

I have the same set-up as saplumr and it's great. People see that and right away I have a racecar. I also put a chrome extinguisher on the passenger post. So now my car is even faster

So now my car is even faster Yet another reason why I personally did not want pillar mounted guages... one more thing to attract attention from ricers and the like... I do think they look cool as hell though!
