So I am wanting to get a boost gauge and found this https://x-ph.com/p3cars-bmw-f1x-528i...tal-interface/

It's an in-vent boost gauge, looks pretty cool IMO. But just wondering if anyone else here has bought this. How do you guys like it? Also I have the JB4 with the OBD plug. This boost gauge also plugs into the OBD plug. You guys think I can get this to work the the JB4 using a "Y" harness? Any input would be greatly appreciated. I could go the mechanical route, but I just hate having to find access through the firewall to route wires, vacuum lines etc. Thanks all!!

I'm starting to think this is probably a garbage product that nobody bought since I got no responses, lol!

I think people with mhd/bm3 and jb4 all got virtual gauges using apps that this becomes obsolete.

Specially $489 for a fuqing boost gauge! That is a rip off lol.

I have one installed since 2017. I like it, looked like OEM part once installed. The coolant temp, boost, battery level and 0 to 60 are the ones that I use most often. You can get the display LED without the vent kit for $100 less.

Thanks for the replys guys! Yah I saw that you can just get the LED, but doing more research, it will not work with the JB4 since essentially they would be "fighting" for the signal and will cause the JB4 to not work properly / vise versa. So I guess I can throw this out the window lol. Thinking I should go old school and get a Carbon Fiber Auto Meter Boost Gauge and try to find a vacuum line to T off of. I can go ricer style and get a gauge pod pillar lol!! Nah, I wouldn't do that, but probably mount it on the left side where that little cubby is or maybe even on the steering column...Does anyone here have a regular boost gauge that they can upload pics of how you mounted it? would be good to have some Ideas on where to mount it.
