yeah u can def fit 3 gauges in the vent area. instead of cutting up the radio din panel, you can get the vent gauge panels on ebay for cheap

I just got done reading all 12 pages, and all I have to say if Fuc*ing amazing work man. Nothing is wrong with rattle canning! Haha! Body work and filling lines can be a bit*h if you are being meticulous about it and making sure everything is even. Just wait till someone comes along and thinks it would be funny to kick your sideskirt. That bondo/filling will crack where the skirt meets the body. Trust me, its a bit*h!

I want moare pikshurz now!

yo WC.

i am sittign here reading the directions for my avc-r. and it says that the self learning mode will be more limited in the injector pulse monitoring then in the rpm based monitoring. waht was the reason you connected it to the injector wires again?

i think the rpm base is what i will connect mine too.

this is a pretty complex gadget .

i think the one side was filled in, but the other side was just a rubber fitting... i didnt think twice when i installed it, and it has worked perfect since i installed it back in october...

i bought remanufactured cailpers so i didnt bother to look into that, its been awhile and i dont have any pics here so sorry i cant be more helpful
