WOW; did anyone know they had a custom shop now? I just noticed this while going through their catalogue, again checking to see if there was any analog gauges I might want.

I'm still not 100% sold on EVO gauges--just sucks because not much in my car is with a sweeper arm except the speedo.

Damn, blk/wht..... would go with my theme rather well.

Nice find Storm.

Yeah, I emailed them asking if they had a boost that goes to 35 and not 20.

Sent from a mobile, I think.

I looked at them when I was shopping my gauges.  I HATED the evo digital gauges.  Only one dimmer on the back of the gauge.  The light input just changes the gauges color, and there wasn't enough of a difference between the background and the "data".

Just heard from them; in 2 weeks there will be 35 and 60 psi boost gauges in custom shop.

I would go with them for design I posted over EVO; only beacuse their gauges are the meow!

Thoughts on black with white/white pointer and white LED back light?

Those are the colors I would choose, but after looking at some of the customer designed gauges, I think there was one that was designed like that, didn't look as good as I thought. For me, the Ford Racing Autometer gauges fit my tastes the best.

Great find...I'll have to give the gauge cluster a closer look to see how those would fit in....don't have time to look this evening, do they do real custom designs?

I would like to move the trunk switch button to the panel where the traction control switch is (PP cars) and install a boost gauge in that hole..but standard diameter gauges are larger than that hole.  I would like just a single pod.

You better off just using a pod cup and attaching it to top of your dash imo.

This is nice find Storm! I wonder how long its been there as I have been to there site many of time. But I have played with a little and I have design some kick as looking gauges.

Hope to see a sample of your designs soon, Chris.  I assume they are not in the public domain yet?

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

I ended up getting the auto meter elite gauges.  5677 is 30lbs boost, you can pick from a ton of colors and you can use an external pwm dimmer on the backlight.  Theres also high and low warnings of colors you can set and all that jazz.  I REALLY wanted blue needles to match the speedo but oh well.
