Looks interesting, but US$1,200? What makes it so expensive?

The digital gauges themselves are very expensive. Your next question would probably be why not use cheaper gauges. My guess would be that space is the issue if you plan on mounting it in the door. Limited space, limited options.

Parts are about half of the cost. The rest is labor. But I've posted detailed a detailed thread on how to do this if you want to try it yourself.

Gotta see what Mr. Tax man gives me this year.... but how hard is it to install once you get the door? How do the gauges connect to the car?

your web site, info on "boost guage" reads,
"16 or 100 psi."

i think you meant "16 to 100 psi", no?

anyways, i'm happy to see this product finally available for other
s2000 owners.
good stuff.

however i also think that $1200 is a little too strong...

Our web page is correct. The boost guage is available in 0-16 psi OR 0-100 psi in 1lb increments.

Thanks.

Are these available with metric scales (e.g. degrees celsius) ?
