Also, where did you mount yours? or is there somewhere you would have liked to, I am going for kind of a unique location, just so its not on the window, or covering my speedometer..

I personally love the A-pillar location.

My guages are mounted in the cubby below hvac. They are a pain to view while driving. I am going to mount them where my stock radio goes and move radio under with the relocation.

I'm going to put a boost gauge and AFR gauge on the steering column. I don't plan on getting any other gauges at the moment so these two will be fine in that location. Check youtube, there's a lot of vids showing gauges in Evo's.

I think the cleanest location to put gauges are in the center:

op, thats where i have mine, in the pocket spot, they sit down low and cant be seen by cars passing you(not that the evo gets passed that much, lol), i like it like that, kind of a sleeper spot if you trying to keep stuff low key,

I would have to agree it is so much easier to see them while driving in my opinion. Not many people see it if you have tinted windows either.

I only have the single 2" boost guage so I put mine in the upper corner near the window pillar. This way it's out of the way when you want it to be but also easily viewable. Plus all cables run nicely behind the A/C outlet. Fits nicely on my Evo 6
