Michel_M Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 Maybe someone should do a really short tutorial on installing a boost gauge, cause I always see a lot of the same questions popping up. I think it's also a basic mod that everyone does first. (I'm too lazy though and my car already had one installed actually ) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
