These are the best I could do with fading light and a cheapo camera







The second pic gives the best impression from the drivers view. Doesn't obscure the clocks.

Didn't fit mine myself, so can't help with the wiring Q's I'm afraid.

Comes in very handy though, to check all you're getting full boost when you want it, and when you're trying to drive economically . . . . as if

Thumbs up

MPa = Mega Pascals: 1 MPa = 10 Bar or 1000 KPa or 145.033 PSI

I found a coversion chart....and was supprised to find my 03 STI PPP is running 1.3 bar or .13 MPa on full boost didnt think it would be that high

http://www.onlineconversion.com/pressure.htm

0 megapascal = 0 bar
0.05 megapascal = 0.5 bar
0.1 megapascal = 1 bar
0.15 megapascal = 1.5 bar

0.05 megapascal = 7.2518869 pound-force/square inch (PSI)
0.1 megapascal = 14.5037738 pound-force/square inch (PSI)
0.15 megapascal = 21.7556607 pound-force/square inch (PSI)
