Dude save your money. Don't boost a few minutes before you get to your destination or sit in your car for a minute or 2. Save like 100 bucks

Get a Greddy with a PnP harness. Took me all of about 30 minutes to install. The hardest part was figuring out where I wanted to mount it.

Wow, you have all those mods and no TT?

i know thats what i used to do but am getting tired of it. and just looking for more stuff to buy. thanks for the advice guys. i am looking up the greddys now. 30 mins aint to bad. my srt4 took close to 3 hours cause you have to hard wire it into them. they make harness for evos? that great news for me.

LOL, touche'. I'm sorry, I can't answer your question. I'm sure someone else who has gone down that path can tell you though. Good luck man.

I have the Apexi with HKS harness and really like it. Its nice having a battery voltage display without getting another gauge.

Just bought a used one from a guy on here. Its the Apexi. Easy to install and works great. You can get used ones for $50 on here w/ harness.
