    I remember seeing your gauge spot, only thing is dosnt that get annoying if you need to check it ? i mean ive been in my friends bagged clubman and hes got his where our ash trays are and its nice having the ability to see it when ever but with how i sit i feel like how you have it would get in my way

    i have never had a problem with it there, it doesn't get in the way during shifting.Just my personal preference...i never was a fan of the multiple gauges up the a pillar or on top of the center console. also what type of gauge are you getting? im assuming not digital

    Opinionated yes, but isn't that the point?

    My friend had switch speed. It was lame in my opinion. Doesn't control the speed per se. It just pulsates the valves at different intervals to control "speed". He switched to v2 and loves it. Just giving you some options and opinions to think about

    V2 and switch speed management are only $50 in price.

    ORT is currently running $400 off on complete v2 kits

    and my V2 blows. It 0's out random corners of the car just by attempting to adjust at times. Not so cool on the highway. If it has to be reflashed then something is obviously up with the system in the first place.

    Anyways, I like the dual pod above the ash tray man

    You are probably on the first software release. About 2 updates behind. Airlift reflashes your ECU/manifold for free at any show they attend or will also do it if you send them your manifold

    I know, I already said it had to be reflashed. Just mentioning my problem with it. Thanks though.

    Word. I def would give it a try at some point in future. Testing sensors aligned perfectly adds up quick. I know once its all set its good to go, still tho.

    This many satisfied people means its a pretty damn good gadget
