TopCat - we must catch up soon.

Plantie - agreed, and much more accurate than the speedo too.

Chairk - cheers for that.

I find it a real bind on the M1 if I'm only doing 142mph and the speedo is reading 150mph, do you think I should invest in one these gadgets???????

My speedo reads approx 4mph optimistic to the legal limit, according to geosynchronos space satellites that are 11000 KM in orbit!

Hi Alex,

You finally got it then.
I was round at Nito’s last Friday night and happened to notice that the VSDII box with your name on it had taken root.

A very cool piece of kit.




Cheers,

I have both!

The Boost gauge is also a turbo timer! and it is well easy to install.... the difficult one is the Speedo, because you need to get behind the dash...

Go get em they are fantastic!

Not sure how many Nito has left at the moment so best call straight away!

Rob B - yeah Nito said he caught up with you, hopefully catch up with you soon mate.

Si - they aren't that hard to fit, honest.

DrOfEvil - if you have an issue with me, please come down to the next Surrey meet, perhaps we can rectify this.

Si, you may get it cheaper but the support and backup Nito will give you is second to none mate.... got to be worth the 10-20 max you would/may save??? also if you have a problem Nito replaces - no questions asked!

Just get on with it mate!!! You don't know what your missing!

The top speed bit is well cool!

People love it when I hit the button and it says 167mph

I like the look of the new Defi link system add on aswell
Not sure if you can have it running on the original control unit though?

Is the display projected on the windscreen all the time then?, surely you can only see it at night...
