Turbo gauges - or retro looking stuff
 
As per the title, I am looking for some 400 series turbo gauges for an authentic look on my dash when I fit my turbo engine.

Or if anyone knows where I can get hold of a retro looking set of gauges with a pod that will fit into the dash with minimum modification, that would be great.

Hmm... I may have a set knocking about the man cave somewhere.

Although, the boost guage only goes up to 14psi, prob a bit low for your needs Andrew?

Ah bugger. Im currently looking at 18psi/1.2bar on the stock turbo, don't know about the ratings for the ones I painted today. The engine apparently takes a max recommended pressure of 22psi before needing upgrades.

22psi?
What engine are you fitting if you don't mind my asking :)

Im fitting a F4rt from a Renault megane sport 230 MY2006

Need to get engine mounts made up and ordering a gearbox to go with it...then go from there.

I have a spare shell to make a mechanical fit, then my own car will be off the road for an electronic fit later :)

Let me know how much you'd like for it including p+p

No worries Andrew.
