Is anyone planning on adding a stand alone boost gauge to their interior?
Please share the style of mount and where it’s mounted. I’ve been trying to decide between a few and can’t decide if I should go with an OBD2 style like the AEM x-series or a mechanical style like an auto meter.

We can help you get a good deal on any gauge you pick!

I will try and look for some good mounting points

Will Panda be offering a full range of ancillary Ranger gauges? Can't find anything on your website...

(It appears that there is a lot missing, so I assume you guys are still building up the Ranger components.).

I’m assuming P3 will make a gauge at some point for the Ranger. I have one in my GTI that I love. They make them for F150s also.

I would do something like that for sure... BUT the only time boost really matters to me is when I'm tuned, and if I'm tuned, I'll likely have some sort of device that did the tune that will show me boost, timing, etc. That is a slick looking device though.

Anyone with a 3D printer like to try and print an HP tuners Ngauge mount for either the vent or something similar? Anyone have suggestions as to where to mount the Ngauge other than windsheild mount?

Just an update, I took a chance and went with the aeroforce interceptor gauge. The f150 ecoboost guys seemed to like them. I used an Autometer universal cup, and mounted it to the column. Not many options available for mounting to be honest. Seems really responsive and can measure a wide variety of things.

It also doesn’t block the cluster near as much as it seems. It’s just the photo angle

Been wanting to install one but wanted to use a mechanical gauge versus using the OBDII port, unless there's a vac/boost tubing to tap into...

Anyone else tackled this?

Brand & Part #'s?

Links?

I'm working on something similar. I've been overly busy and have not spent much time on it yet

I haven't installed it yet but I have the aFe intercooler pipe kit and will install the Auto Meter Cobalt gauge in the storage area on top of the dash. I got the pod off of Amazon and it fits perfect but I want to find some paint that matches the dash better. Also, instead of trying to wire the gauge into in the stock dimmer, Auto Meter makes it's own dimmer so I don't need to cut the stock wiring.

I'm over having a bunch of extra hardware stuck all over my vehicles. If I had the wherewithal I'd try to create a display mode to integrate the readout on the area ,left of the speedo.
