Anyone use the ZL1 4 pack to monitor boost?

Is it possible to get it working or not worth the hassle?

Not worth the hassle. Its a terrible spot for any gauge, especially one you look at while at WOT. Hell I'm scared to even look at my pillar gauges while at full throttle.

OK makes sense. I would be scared to look too. Boost gauge on the heads up display would be sweet.

I had a aftermarket one on my TT LLT and it was a bad location. Switched to the pillar but like said already you really won't be looking at it during WOT lol.

Can some recommend a gauge that would monitor boost and IAT's that would fit on the door frame.

Nice set up and yeah at WOT, you won't be looking at your boost gauge. And I like that young jeezy song too.
