Anyone on the forum running a P3 cars boost gauge? What do you make of it? I've watched numerous videos and they look brilliant. I'm in the process of setting up a group buy (if it passes the admin's approval) if anyone is interested, post your interest on that thread.

I have one, it's ok but would be alot better if it had a few more features like the polar fis
-
Ill be in
-
I have one. I like it but its a bit pricey for what it is in my opinion but everyones different.
-
I really fancy one of these but the price really puts me off, in reality it's really expensive for what it is...
Interested to know the group buy price tho...
-
What sort of price would it be ? I like the look of those

I looked at this but went with the polar FIS instead, does loads more and integrates much better by seamlessly integrating onto the canbus, hence nothing to plug into the obd. The FIS literally has every engine perameter available. Plus it can change settings in the ecu in the same way VagCom does to enable things like video in motion and dipping passenger mirror when you select reverse. Worth a look.

Good to hear! I will keep you posted @Orc (http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=9637)

Will be around £300 + Postage I imagine.

I agree, but the Gauges look so clean and OEM. It's defiantly somthing for people to consider :happy2:

Do you need vagcom to install it? I'm keen on the P3 but it is pricey, waiting to see on group buy price.
The FIS does look good too but I quite like the idea of a separate gauge.

I imported a few gauges from the US to see how they sell and nobody is interested...
I'm assuming its the price putting everyone off? Not sure a group buy is viable with 0 interests :ashamed:

I'd be in Chris, obviously price dependent!
-
Is that £300 in a vent? It was $489 in a vent pod, so around the same but I guess you're saving the postage and import duty?

Okay Andy - Il see what I can do! :happy2:

Yeah - Literally top of the range - Red/Red. In vent with optional analogue boost tap. I can also add in the performance chip which gives a few additional features. :happy2:
-
What does the extra chip do?

What does the extra chip do?
On top of 0-60 times
60-130
130-0
0-130 (I think)
60-0
I can't actually remember, il have to write them down next time I'm next to it!

Bump! Still for sale!
