That's interesting....I'd like a nice clean set like that too but prob boost, air/fuel and some other measurement other than oil pressure. Guess it doesn't matter those are probably the 3 most important?

I like how that set up looks, but it doesn't seem very practical to be looking down under full load... especially if youre not going straight on an open and empty road

i got it done at a shop but took them around 2 hours. the hardest thing was finding a unit that would let me stay with the oem bmw oil pressure unit and incorporate a guage there was only one place i could find with it.

Op please search around here, there are many options. Even your piggy back tunes can hijack the fuel gauge to show boost.

If BMW should make a performance parts gauge it would be the p3 one

i currently use the jb4 to hijack the oil temp gauge for boost but i'll be picking up one of these in the near future.
