New Boost Gauge Idea

Hey everyone, was just gauging soe interest on this boost gauge idea i photoshopped up.

This is simply a rough photoshop, and before you say it, yes...the needles dont line up.

It'll mainly be for all cobalts, let me know what you think.

that would be too much needle movement in one area for me (when shifting and such) but its a cool idea

yes it would be spaz, but i can be done.

in short, where the 2 needle ends sit, they will overlap, but it is possible.

That's actually a really cool concept. Not sure if I would spend the money to get that, but it looks great.

I like. That would be pretty sweet. Looking over to the side pillar when gettin on her kinda gets tough at times.

I love the idea. Doesn't have to be a boost gauge just any gauge.

An interceptor would work nicely in there because it is a digital display.

I say roll with it. Looks great!
