    It's in the first post (buried in there with everything else, I'll admit), but basically if you provide the tach, it's $125 shipped. If I provide the tach, it's $150 shipped.

        Right now 0-15 psi is the lowest I have, but I can make one for 10psi. Would you rather have it with vacuum or not?

        As for the m3 cluster, I believe all of them are the post-86 style (1 red SI light), so that's good. Though if you are still using the m3 tach and want to keep the 8k, then that does present an issue since the cut out for the oil temp is a little different. The cutout could be cut larger or I could make the gauge smaller to fit the cutout. I haven't seen the insides of an m3 tach/oil temp gauge yet, but I think most likely some parts from the oil temp portion would have to be swapped out for some non m3 tach parts.

          I want to turbo charge my car just for one of these. Looks like awesome fit and finish!

              I've been wanting something like this since I turbo'd and now that I am going to sell the car you come out with this? I might have to keep it for a bit longer and revise my gauge setup.

              I can hear the wife now... "WHAT!!!"

              You said you have versions with VAC and Boost right? I would need Vac - 15psi. Have something like that?

                I am sold on this. As soon as I get funds, this is exactly what I'm looking for.

                  haha :)

                  Well the closest thing I have now is a Vac-20psi. But I could make a Vac-15psi design if you want.

                    I NEED THIS. Totally going to buy vac-psi setup when I start the turbo build. I love additions like this that appear stock. Great work!

                      Just got mine back from justrack in the mail. I would like to point out that communication was excellent and the overall product is pretty satisfactory. He even sent it back with insurance, so it shows he strives for satisfaction. Although my car won't be done for a solid few more weeks, I have installed it with ease and in my next post I will throw a shot of the location of the boost recall switch. In the mean time, I recommend this due to the simplicity and OEM look and feel. There are multiple options (which almost made it hard for me to choose).

                          Hi Guys,

                          Got one of these gauges. It is very cool and works great. Straight forward install and quality unit. Great communication with seller. He has some electrical skills for sure. This thing must have taken forever to reverse engineer.

                          Thanks again Justin

                                I'm planning on doing another run of the gauges, but it may not be before the new year.

                                For now, I'm only planning on making the vacuum/boost gauges. There's few bugs/issues with the oil temp/pressure gauges with the new gauge design, so for now I've stopped making them.
