Pics? I know there is the P3 vent gauge and another one that has 3 gauges and mounts to the ash tray by the shifter. Was wondering if there was more choices myself as it seems not many make the mods they use to for the BMW's anymore.

D041987, I love my P3 Gauge, and live in Shoreline if you ever want to see it.

You might need to tap the Manifold for a Vac source as I do not think we have boost lines on these new cars. Tapping the manifold will give you the most accurate reading for boost. Otherwise you will need to have an electronic gauge setup and somehow tap into the OBDII/CANBUS to read boost levels.
