hi all,
I have a question regarding my boost gauge. I currently running an electronic boost controller (greddy e-01) and it has display (vac/boost).
Can i eliminate my boost gauge?? (i got too many gauges for my taste).

thanks..

Do you have another way of seeing creep / spike?

so far, i have not seeing any creep/spike yet (in 3yrs). i am running 38mm hks gate and its atmospheric vented. but if there is spike/creep, wouldn't my ebc screen showed it as well??

I overlooked the part of the EBC showing boost.

Yes, if you know for a fact that it works reliably and will give you accurate boost data, I don't see anything wrong with removing a boost gauge. The only thing I can think of is if the boost gauge is mechanical, it will still work in case something in the electronics messes up your EBC.

off topic,
But how do you enjoy your stay (thus far) here in toronto?? Do you have ur fc with you??

Nah, I sold the FC. I drive an Insight now in order to save gas. I'm looking to get back into the game within a couple of years.

Toronto's nice, good food, I have a big network of friends here as well, so it's not too bad.

The only thing I hate are the $200 / month insurance rates.
