Question

Anybody know the best place to fit a 55mm boost guage in an old dash imprezza (no handy box thing on top of dash)? I don't really want it on the A-Pillar. Besides, it looks like too much work to get the pipe up there.

Cheers,

Rob

Cheers Jamie,

I'm really just looking for some kind of bracket which I can use to mount it next to my left knee, under the dash. I just want it for calibrating and checking the dawes, I don't really want it as a feature.

I used heavy duty velcro to tape it in corner by left leg.
Its never fallen off and is out of way from scumbags looking in.
If you angle it right then it is clear to see - but only on straights!!

No, don't like that too much....bit boy racer IMHO! Think I'll go for the blue peter style double sided sticky tape!
