Mines a Paddle (I think) it's not Organic also the the clutch bleeder block de-restricted at the same time! it's not too heavy... In-fact if I drive any cars now, I would think their clutches are broken (why so light!?) ha-ha
Well getting a new car has stalled after the jokers offered me a ridiculous p/x price, so I may be looking to go private or go to another dealership, I have fell in love with the new vxr though so I'm not giving up that easily ! Anyway to take my mind off it a bit the leon went into the bodyshop today for a few bits to be resprayed ( diffuser, front grill, bottom grill, bottom lip and the triple r splitter )

Fitted my boost gauge and run the pipe from my APR boost tap.
Never been out much although I did have a short blast in 3rd and 4th although not to the limit.
In 6th the boost flicks upto 26psi.
Here's a crap video of my 3rd and 4th trial run

The pillar mount was very easy and a nice snug fit.
When the pillar mount arrived I was a little unsure for the money but once fitted in place it looks great.
I used the rspec gauge shown here.

I'd used one on my last car and was very happy with it.
Only criticism would be its a little blue compared to the dash lights but I like it.

Do you get to set the warning level on it?
My Guage is set at 0.9bar warning so i contacted the company in taiwan and they said you cant set the level
Yeah the warning level is adjustable it was set at 16psi and I've moved it upto 26psi for now.
Quite like the flashing red when it hits it.
Very easy to adjust you just hold the set button and after 5 seconds the needle moves up and you stop it where you want.
If I get fed up of it flashing I'll move it upto the 30.
The good thing with this gauge is it does needle sweep the same as the car and calibrates itself every time it's powered up.

0.9 bar is only about 12psi it must be flashing constantly.
It's true what they say though, once you get used to what readings are normal its like a diagnostic tool as you know something's wrong when you don't see what you expect,
