Cool Boost Gauge

Installed the AutoMeter tonight in the pod...
Easy and worth while...plus it is just plan neat. I used the green light. Now I'm considering a Air Fuel ratio meter as well.
I compared My factory and the AutoMeter and they were pretty much the same....Max out at
10 #'s. Factory except for the missing muffler. Sal's stuff should be in first of the week and then I'll compare against factory equiped.

Talking

This is on my list of things to do...

Does autometer make a single pod bezel for our L's? Ive seen it on f250/350s but the guy who had it says he didnt think autometer made one for the 150- which didnt make sense.
Planning on sticking in the Autometer Phantom boost gauge with the green back light.

And dont get the digital stoicheometric gauge. I put one of those in a mustang and i thought it was really irritating- but the guy wanted it and thought the little flasing lights were cool.

Twisted99-

Where does the boost gauge mount, on the A-pillar? What is the maximum boost it shows? I have been thinking about getting one, but not sure how simple/complex the install is? Where did you get yours and how much? Sorry about all the questions, but I was going to post a thread on this topic myself.

Thanks in advance...Alex

I ordered the gaue and pod through a speed shop in Pennsicola Fla. It was here in a bout 3 days. I left it black. It was very easy and as a matter of fact if you do a search here for {autometer gauge install}you will find all the info you need.

Find autometer online and they will have a locator for dealers I think.
