Question New boost gauge

Hi all, just fitted a new boost gauge to my 2.5 WRX wagon and need some advice please...

It's a 52mm gauge and looks pretty good - however i would like to mount it on the A pillar instead of just stuck to the dashboard; does anyone know of a decent A pillar single pod that would fit a hawkeye WRX? Also, is the wagon A pillar the same as the saloon? I'm guessing so but don't want to buy a pod for a saloon to find its different.

Oh, and it seems to be running about 0.8 bar max, is that about right for a 2.5 WRX standard? Only mods are high flow panel filter and a Scoobyworld back box, no remap (yet... )

Cheers,

Pete

The A-pillars are the same, yes.

My 52mm double pod for a classic came from Scoobyclinic and was well made and a good match. Try there.

As for boost, I don't know, sorry......

No A-Pillars on new age wagons are different from saloons.

Right, I got one for a saloon off eBay and it's not actually a bad fit:



It will do fine for now I think - the fit could be a little better and the colour is a bit off but I can sort that out another time - at least its mounted and looking fairly tidy
