...in the factory cluster. It took some trimming of the circuit board, IP face, and rear housing, but it's in and everything still works. I even put blue LEDS in it to match the rest of my gauges. And yes, that's a flat spot on the right side of the gauge bezel. I accidentally knocked it off my workbench and it hit the floor:emotions122: Now all I need is for my blower to come in. It finally shipped and will be here Wednesday:rocking:

Thanks. Right now about 6psi until I get ready to re-tune for the smaller pulley, which will then put it around 10psi.

Looks like another nice install JK. To tell the truth, I doubt anyone would have noticed a flat spot.

That looks tight bro!! The icing on the cake would be if you could get the needles to be the same color but it looks **** as it is. Keep up the good work.

Yea, finding a factory looking gauge would be sweet. In my rx8 I had several aftermarket gauges that looked identical to stock. They even switched to be the same color at nighttime when I turned on my headlights. A service advisor at the mazda dealer asked me for the mazes oem part numbers for the gauges and the pod I made from fiberglass. It made my day.

And yes your truck looks awesome considering 122,000 miles.

Looks great! Can't wait to hear that whine... Magnacharger is probably going to send you a can of foam to fill your fender to reduce the noise, POINTLESS :imo: I loved the noise mine on my Silverado made and look forward to this mod on my Yukon one day...

A Group Buy would be nice...

Do you have any fears about adding a supercharger with that many miles?

Gauge looks great!

I love s/c whine. The foam isn't going in there...

Just gives me an excuse to drop in a built 6.0:D
But really, I'm not too worried about it. The tranny will go before the motor. I'm ordering a Stage III trans in a couple weeks.

Pics of it at night!

I thought a Boost gauge won't read until there is some sore of fi.

If you wanted the needles to match should have gotten Cobalt Series. Out of curiousity, how did you change the color? Sodder or replace a bulb?
