Boost gauge feeler: Who is interested in a custom gauge?
I talked with Paul at Marshall gauges and it sounds like he can get us what we want.
I just need to provide him with gauge face and lighting info and quantity and he can get me some pricing.
So, we would need a face designed (Ed?), and quantity.
But to start, How many people would be interested in this? If I can get a ball park number, Paul can give me a cost.
If it looks like this can happen, I'll handle the GB for everyone.

If we can get min of 25 ppl in, the cost would be $73 plus shipping...

It is this one with a custom dial to match our gauges.

I would rather have someone make a specific gauge pod for our cars and not an A-pillar one either. The center HVAC vent would be great with the capability to hold a 52mm gauge.
The gauge itself isn't an issue as there are a ton of gauges out there to choose from. Rather see the R&D go into a mounting location.

I like my aluminum plate in the center console, where the ashtray used to reside. It can house 2 gauges (even 60mm Defi links)

Placement is subjective. Everybody has their own idea about where it should go.
So far, as gauges go, there is nothing that matches. There is always a concession somewhere because of this. Everything out there that I've looked at is off in some way. What we are trying to do is make a gauge that matches our existing ones exactly.
Then you can put it where you want it to go.
