I think it'll screw up your serpentine belt sizing...
which is special already cuz it's designed to fit your Supercharger.
Also, everyone I know who's installed them said they didn't notice anything.

Sorry, I didn't see this email earlier.
You might not notice any sound difference... since it's all pre muffler.
I think the hp numbers are a bit exxagerated... but they could be cool.
You interested?

If you're after hp or acceleration.. we can spend your money other ways -- like diff :)
If you're after exhaust musical note.. i would focus on muffler.

I see about the dvwp, so we need to paint. Dont think CF is gonna look right.
Oh yes, I assume that when Karl pains only one side, there is not a sharp boundary when the door opens? There is a panel there anyway, so I hope the paint at least wraps around a bit, even if just one coat to make it look homogeneous.

I think what we can do is just paint the underside without clear..... to keep it cheaper.  If we want to paint both sides.. it shouldn't be much more money / maybe $100.  I'll ask Karl about it.

About gauges - those are the coolest setup I've found.  I would have to comment that they won't match the Analog look of the dash exactly.. but they are customizable. Since up to four sensors can work with 1 of the gauge displays.. I thought that would minimize that bug look. Only 1 -- feel me? They are pretty expensive though but I wanted to start with my favs for cool effect. 
 
There's another company that does 2 in 1 gauges that I know of.... SPA Technique
 
Gauges can range anywhere from $50 - $400 a piece.  Should we keep looking??

like these as well but they dont do the afr. These are actually nicer, the two in one is sweet and the background customizable. Did you get my last ?? the 4 in one gauge has a little remote. Do I manually have to cycle through, or can it be set to auto cycle. If it is auto cycle, then our search is done. If it is manual, still like em, but maybe keep looking?
These spatetechnique is nice but the list of what they measure may not be of much value. Like the exhaust, music or power. Form or function. Juice or squeeze.

Actually- for the plx devices.. you can have them all displayed at one time in one display..  or cycle through as you'd like.
I recommend viewing the video's at the bottom of that link I sent you.. it gives you a good feel.
 
For the SPA gauges.. the Exhaust gas temp gauge actually is useful if you were tuning.. but you're not..
 
I can look for other dual gauges.. if that's the way you want to go... but i don't know of any others out there.

If we go with the spa gauges - we could probably do boost and oil pressure. Then have a 2nd gage dedicated for afr.  I would prefer some gage coordination though...

We might be able to find an AFR gauge that's not TOO different then the SPA gauges.. like same bezel color and backing.

I like the plx and you pick what I need to see regarding gauge data. We can pick a nice analog to match, they have an M gauge on their website. I did not find a video but I follow. Since it cycles through each display, I am sold. On the a pillar down low, discreet and tres cool.
Well done again.

I'm glad you like them.. I'm kinda excited to see how they'll turn out.
Maybe I'll put a BZ in the background.. or a doctors cross/snake?
Or maybe - dre
