GaleForce's build

Hi Galeforce, have you installed your boost and AFR gauges yet? If so, any pics of the install? I was thinking of using an a-pillar pod for AFR and EGT and the stock clock location for boost.

I am in the process of moulding my A-pillar right now. I expected to have it shaped last week but one of my other projects took priority. Hopefully I can get back to it next week.

Here is a couple of pictures for the mockup,

Thanks for the photos! (that was quick)
You weren't kidding when mentioning doing a lot of the work and fab'ing yourself.
I was hoping we can just use an Autometer dual pod that would fit nicely, but that might be too easy

Can't wait to see it finished.

Yes, a pre-made pod(s) will be much easier. I tried a mockup similar to using a gauge pod and wasn't happy with the results. Going a full custom build I am able to maximize my vision of the gauge and minimize the obstruction of view out.
