The dealer told me they would install a boost gauge once I get the car. Has anybody had the dealer install this? How much did they charge? What brand of guage did they use? Does the install look good?

THere is a really good write up on how to install your own autometer gauge, but it would be nice for the dealer to do so there will be no warranty ?'s. I know with my SRT4 most dealers would attempt to deny warranty due to the most minor of modifications.

 

There is a MINI branded gauge kit for the R53 and I heard rumors there would be one for the R56 in the spring. I'm considering getting it if and when it comes out.

 

it should have been a factory option IMO

 

I knew I'd read something about this previously.
