All, i am working on an idea for a boost install and would like some comments, suggestions, advice etc...

Here is the basic Evo dash...


Here is your Lancer Ralli Dash...


Notice the Lancer has the emergency button next to the stereo. I plan on relocating the EVo setup to the Lancer setup.

Now comes the fun part. I want to cut out the area where the clock and stock evo emergency button is like so....




The hard part will be making a frame to hold the gauge into the square vent cutout. I figure a 52mm guage should give me plenty of room to work with.


What does everyone think?

 

eh.. autometer makes a 3x gauge plate for where the radio is.. and a 3x gauge pod for where the cubby is..

 

I've seen it.....but i want something different!

 

its gonna be hard to make it look flush, and your going to need the actual lancer hazard button. your going to have to bondo and paint it

 

some updates...

Just a suggestion, but you dont want your gauge to be pointing upward. You need to counter-sink it so its level with the dash.

 

naiculnila, Forget these guys. I give you mad props for the initiative, the creativity and the originality

 

Someone on here relocated the hazard switch to the roof of the cubby, try searching around, they might have ideas.

 

Appreciate the comments everyone. Karash, i'm working on that as we speak brother.

I'm actually trying to find a company to custom mold the vent support with the gauge support in the middle as above but cleaner looking. Hopefully i can find someone.

Thank You very much sir! Def nothing wrong with trying something new.

I plan on using the stock lancer setup to keep it all factory looking which mounts the hazard right next to the radio.



I've been really busy with work so i haven't had time to work on this..but hopefully it will be ready real soon!

 

I love it!

 

i really like it...what a regular mechanical defi gauge?

 

It's the BF series with the Controller Unit...

 

how much? ... i like it...gonna look sick at night

 

paid < $300 for the Boost gauge and the controller

Everything else is still to be determined. as far as the stock lancer dash with the moved hazard. I have to check junkyards to find the panel or pay the dealer 80 bux for a new one.

 

...cool. I like custom work, you gonna leave it that glossy black color? ...hope not
