Just got a dashtronix and use the hud or dic. It is way nicer, cleaner, and doesn't get in the way.

I think the pods look like.... well... ricer pods.

Never cared for them at all. They hang too low and are a huge distraction.

I just mounted a boost gauge above the vent. It's not distracting at all and is very low-profile. I may eventually move it into the dash to hide the wires.
The meth control is on top of the column.

Thank you, the setup is a ECS sl2200 on 15lbs making 750 to the tire. The exhaust is LG 1 3/4 and cutouts, I have a bunch of videos showing it all on YouTube.

That's the setup for now, things should be getting more sinisTTer this winter

Sounds like an awesome ride! TT's are awesome, just a little too much of a pain for me since I have little experience with them and live in a small military community. However, I'm really leaning on going with the ECS Novi 2200 kit myself, how loud is it, any idle videos?

Here is mine, Autometer boost and fuel pressure. I will probably add a third, maybe an aeroforce in the future.

I have a few idle videos, they're on my yt channel. The car is very loud when opened but sounds stock closed which is why I chose cutouts, it really is the best of both worlds

I don't want to derail the threads if anyone has questions about my setup please pm, thanks guys
