Dean @RW-Developments Posted July 25, 2008 Author Share Posted July 25, 2008 over the last few months ive been collecting parts. and thought it would be good if i got some gauges! so had a few ideas about wat i wanted so got my self some brand new gauges and a few extras.thought id get a pillar pod for pure slickness lol decided on boost gauge, rev gauge, oil pressure gauge, and a volt meter for all the flat battery problems ive had.some corbon fibrethe guagesi origonally wanted the oil pressure gauge and the volt meter under the sterio but after attempting to fit them there was no room so had to comprimise,bit of carbonbeforeafter both togetheri also fitted an oil sandwich plate for the oil pressure gauge but because ive got power steering i had to shave the power steering bracket a fair bit for it to fit, it was a pain in the arse! looks good thoughfor a muinite thats it but there will be an updait shortly!! well pleased so far with the results Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bourkey Posted July 25, 2008 Share Posted July 25, 2008 Yo dean. Quick note. You know that blue hose that is on top of the engine coming from the rocker to the inlet mani. Replace it with the standard one. The hose is just not good enough for it and it pops off and gets shit everywhere. And if you tighten it on it starts twisting until it comes off. I knew i had something to tell you. Put the standard black one on as it does the job perfectly.Also make sure all the belts are tight like the alternator one. My alternator wasn't tight enough and the belt started slipping last week. Makes a super shit noise like a pig in your engine bay!Also sell your parents house because when you have run it in your will be boosting everywhere as it is soooooo addictive.Me and Mark are coming to yours early about 10am hopefully. Depends on the fantastic M6.Bourkey Quote Link to post Share on other sites
