Interior/Exterior Cravenspeed nGauge Install

That's what I was just thinking. A simple boost gauge should never be more than $150.

Tapping a boost line is super easy on any turbo car. Only about an hour labor for just about any car. The only part I get is that it matches. That is definitely important but $300 for a cable? That makes no sense at all considering the hardware to install a traditional boost gauge is probably only about $10 in fittings and hoses.

In case I offended, my apologies, but nobody wants to know about that either so if you want to discuss further, send me a PM. =)
Back to actual discussion?

How will the oil pressure be sent to the gauge - wirelessly ? How hard is the sender install?

Chrome is coming! They are not ready yet, but the company we found to chrome the bezels has them already and we are just waiting for them to finish up the first batch.
Oil Temp faces are in...but the programming is not done yet.
Work is also happening on Oil PSI, but that will take a much longer time than the other two projects above.

Just a heads up, we actually have no bezels at all for the moment. We ran out of both silver and black this week. I expect that we will have more ready on Monday or at least early next week, so we are still taking orders but they are not shipping out next day like all of our other parts!

What Garmin unit is that? I am looking for a mount that will fit my Garmin Nüvi 2597. Any suggestions?

It's a 2497. I didn't want to go with the 5" model. I used a Cravenspeed mount. Works like a champ.

That's cool, I think we are talking about apples and oranges here though. Besides the simple install, nGauge is ground-up designed for your MINI. The gauge face matches down to the font and the shape of the needle; I don't think it can even be argued that the autometer looks factory installed. Further, we are talking about a pair of matching gauges with nGauge, and the mechanical boost gauge you are evaluating against it is the least expensive form of gauge. Anything else is going to require electrical senders and is sometimes twice the cost, especially AFR.
I think what you have installed there, looks fine, it's cheap, it works and that's cool. I am just not sure why it would be included in the same conversation that we are having here. It is not just the crazy difference in the install time, but I would argue that everything about nGauge is a step better than what you are comparing it to, and more on par with the quality that suits your MINI.
